Man I got a pile of answers on the GPS question. Unfortunately, I was looking
to get a good modern (current) handheld for being in the woods. My camp up
north is surrounded by pretty wild country and I could really use a good
handheld GPS. It is very easy to get lost there. The woods are so thick that a
handheld compass has plenty of trouble since landmarks cannot be seen very
well. Also, being 70 years old, my eyesight is not so great and I need a good
display. The older units don’t really look like they will cut the mustard, so I
was hoping to find a newer unit with a better display. I do not have a smart
phone, and one of my goals in life is to never ever have a smart phone.
I really appreciate all the comments and suggestions. I can’t thank
everybody with a personal message, but I want everyone to know that I
appreciate all the input. A great group of folks on this reflector for sure.
