Default RE: Anyone use GPS?

I currently have a Garmin Legend Cx and before that a Garmin Etrex, and I would not be without one when hunting, fishing or just driving the back country.. They are worth their weight in gold when you want to get back '"home"'. The yellow Garmin Etrex is only about $100.00 and is great, but does not have the color screen or mapping feature.. One thing about buying one.. In the Garmins, you get a base map and a inland waterways map.. If you want any other maps, they are optional and can cost anywhere from $79.00 to $249.00.. I like the Legend Cx, because the maps are available on Micro SD cards and you can change cards by just taking one out and replacing it with another..

Oh and one other thing.. Anything that runs on batteries, can go out when you least expect it.. Carry extra batteries and a good compass and too map..
