Default RE: Garmin eTrex Legend® CX GPS

I got the Garmin E-trex Legend last spring for turkey hunting. I do not have the extra software.I like the features. It's easy to operate. However, Idon't think the maps, even the ones you can purchase, have that kind of detail. As far as the function, It works great. It'll track satellites even under a roof. When you have it in WAAS-enabled mode, it will take you within 8 ft of your marked spot. The only downside I've found so far is that it will loose satellite contact when you put it into your pocket. If you are marking your route, the loss of contact interrupts your route map. As soon as you take it out, it re-acquires it's contact. I find it annoying but not a problem. Bottom line: Knowing what I know, I'd still get it
