Image - eTrexWith eTrex ? from GARMIN by your side, you can take on the big wide world without looking back. Because when it's time to return to camp or find the dock, eTrex will take you there. This smart handheld is the best of GARMIN GPS in a sleek, water resistant case.

Truly a small wonder, the eTrex ? takes the best features of a 12 parallel channel GPS receiver and puts them into a 150 gram package that is only 11.2 cm tall and 5.1 cm wide. The result is a unit that will literally fit in the palm of your hand.

Besides its small size, mariners and bush walkers will likely notice the sleek design of the eTrex. All buttons are located on either side of the unit, allowing for simple, one-handed operation that won't obstruct your view of the display. In fact, the eTrex features only five operator buttons for the ultimate in user-friendly design.

Inside the eTrex, you will find the proven performance of a 12 parallel channel GPS receiver that will run for up to 18 hours on just two AA batteries. No need to worry about dense tree canopy with this unit, the eTrex will continue to maintain a tight satellite lock even while operating in forest-like conditions.

The eTrex will store up to 500 user waypoints with graphic icons and boasts GARMIN's exclusive TracBack? feature that will reverse your track log and help you navigate your way back home. In addition, the eTrex uses animated graphics that will help you identify your marked waypoints quickly and easily.
