Handheld GPS Garmin eTrex 30
eTrex 30 takes one of the most popular and reliable GPS handhelds and makes it better. Redesigned ergonomics, an easier-to-use interface, paperless geocaching and expanded mapping capabilities add up to serious improvements for an already legendary GPS handheld. eTrex 30 is versatile. It's tough. /p>
Paperless GeocachingSpend more time in the field and less time fumbling with paper! The eTrex stores and displays key information, including location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions, which means no more manually entering coordinates and paper print outs. Simply upload the geocaching GPX file to your unit and start hunting for caches. |
Track More SatellitesFind your way with the first consumer-grade GPS receiver that tracks both GPS and Russian Federation GLONASS satellites simultaneously. When using them together, the receiver has the ability to lock onto 24 more satellites than using GPS alone, ensuring you can “lock on” to a position more quickly. |
Pick Your ProfileCustomize eTrex for every occasion. Profiles allow eTrex to quickly switch into different configurations that you create, so when you’re done geocaching and you need to drive home, your eTrex won’t miss a beat. |
More Dashboards in More PlacesBring more functionality into your frequently used applications with dashboards. Avoid switching between applications and display more information by customizing them with an altimeter, compass, configurable data fields and more. |
Advanced TrackingWhether following a saved route or planning a new one, eTrex has the tracking features you need. Users can see high and low elevation points or store waypoints along a track (start, finish and high/low altitude) to estimate time and distance between points. |
Extensive Map SupportWith its microSD™ card slot and large internal memory, eTrex 30 lets you load a variety of maps, including BirdsEye™ Select, BlueChart® g2, City Navigator NT® and BirdsEye™ Satellite Imagery (subscription required). |
