The Garmin GPS eTrex H is the perfect handheld GPS unit for the outdoor enthusiast on a budget. The Garmin eTrex H features a highly sensitive GPS receiver that finds and locks onto satellite signals very quickly and maintains accuracy, even under the toughest conditions.
This little yellow wonder has an intuitive interface and a rugged exterior that fits in the palm of your hand comfortably. You can easily operate it with one hand using five buttons that are on either side of the eTrex H. The bright yellow case makes it easy to find in your backpack or boat. The Garmin eTrex H is IPX7 waterproof, so if it should take a plunge in the water it will still perform.
The Garmin eTrex H offers 17 hours of battery life and the unit weighs just 5.3 ounces. It offers you superb reception even in heavy tree cover and canyons.
This navigator has the storage capacity for up to 500 waypoints with name and symbol, 20 routes with up to 125 waypoints per route and the track log holds 10,000 track log points. It has support for 15 languages and celestial data to tell you the best hunt and fish times.
With the extended battery life on the Garmin eTrex H your adventure can last and last. As you hike, you just need to enter the point you want to go to and the eTrex H points you to your destination. When it’s time to head home, use the exclusive TrackBack feature to reverse your track log and navigate back to where you started from.
The trip computer that is on board the eTrex H calculates current and average speed, the sunset and sunrise as well as trip time and distance.
The Garmin eTrex H is a navigator that you can afford, and it comes with a handy wrist strap, owner’s manual and a quick start guide.
