Pros: Small and easy to use. Keeps accurate track of the trail you are following and where you have been

Never Lost!

I seems like a great product for the price. I would like an easy to use menu to go between waypoints that are not in order and the unit should give me bearing and distance for each of these selected. If I put in 20 waypopints, I could then choose multiple routes- for my orienteers to navigate that would be in the hundreds.

This is a great GPS for anyone not wanting to spend several hundred dollars. Accuracy is very good with long battery life. The only drawback is the RS-232 serial port connector. I tried several USB-RS232 adaptors with little luck. Best option is to b

This GPS is a great way to start out on a GPS. It doesn't have a lot of bells or whistles but it is very accurate and easy to use. It doesn't overwhelm you if you are a newbie cacher. I will(and have) recommend this GPS to friends.

The Legend is small and pretty easy to use. It has good accuracy as long as you have a clear view of the sky, otherwise you loose the signal. The display is small and can be hard to see but it is a trade-off. It is not easy to figure out how to load waypoints from the computer to the Legend. This would be very important if I were on a long trail and had a lot of points to enter. It has all of the feaures you would need to stay on the trail and not get lost.
