The high-sensitivity GPS receiver and sunlight readable touchscreen on the Oregon 300 allows for easy operation and it conveniently runs on 2 x AA batteries so you can be sure to have power when you need it. You can customise the Oregon 300 with five different user profiles - Automative, Marine, Recreation, Fitness, or Geocache - versatile enough to suit whatever your needs. It even accepts Geocaching GPX files directly to your unit so you can get on with your hunt without having to type in co-ordinates or write down instructions.

Add detailed street mapping or marine maps through the microSD™ slot for whatever adventure you want to take your Oregon 300 on! It's fully waterproof and rugged enough to withstand bumps, dust, dirt, humidity and water. You can also wirelessly share your waypoints, routes and geocaches with other Oregon and Coloardo users. All at the touch of a button!

With a built in electronic compass and barometric altimeter you can get bearing information and precise altitude information. Even while standing still. You can even plot barometric pressure over time to keep track of changing weather conditions. Measure elevations, to an accuracy of a few metres, and decide on heads of water. Envisage property land form, or dam design, with the elevation profile on any track. For recreation or aviation, work out rates of climb and descent, and read the elevation history profile. The Garmin Oregon 300 also includes Garmin's TracBack Feature, which allows you to retrace your path back to where you started. The Oregon 300 has area measurement functions, making it equally useful for farmers, loss adjusters, land-owners, agricultural consultants, and aquaculturalists. Area measurement is simple and fast. Just walk, drive or ride around the perimeter to be measured, press a button, and there you have it. Ask for our special instructions, free on purchase of this GPS.

The Oregon 300 displays 3-D elevation perspective and can also display Garmin Custom Maps. Garmin Custom Maps is a free and simple process that transforms paper and electronic maps into downloadable maps for your compatible Garmin GPS.
