Testimony to eTrex use in the real outdoors

This article is no longer being produced. You may now order the new "high sensitivity" eTrex H. We supplied the eTrex for 8 years, from February 2000, to March 2008. Most accessories shown here, apply to the new model.

Improved: Now includes trip computer page, and sun and moon times. We sell hundreds of these little beauties. Why? Because frankly it has the features that most people need in a small handheld GPS. The Garmin eTrex™ is the unit I can recommend for boating, personal trekking, scouting, and any outdoor pursuit where size matters. This is the true robust pocket GPS.
It takes the best features of a 12 parallel channel GPS receiver and put them into a package that is only 100mm high and 50mm wide. The result is a unit that will literally fit in the palm of your hand.

Major features:
1. Track file stores 2000 points, and IN ADDITION, can store 10 track files with hundreds of points in each (up to 60 times the number in a GPS12 track file)
2. There are three separate memory areas on the eTrex- all are backed up by a flash device that requires no power or charging. There is the 500 waypoint memory- then the live track or track log memory (2000 points) - then the 10 separate track files memory.
3. 2 AA batteries run for over 20 hours.
4. Course deviation shows on the map page, instead of highway page in other models.
5. Latest firmware (April 2005) shows sun, moon, best hunting/fishing times, trip computer page, satellite positions, and signal strengths.

Free firmware upgrades for my customers. Just call at, or send unit to my shop. If you did not purchase your GPS at Johnny Appleseed GPS, the charge for firmware upgrade is $26.40.

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.

Thanks to its bright yellow case, the eTrex will be hard to misplace and easy to find in any boat or backpack. The eTrex is completely waterproof so it can take an accidental splash or dunk in the water and still continue to perform.

Inside the eTrex, you will find the proven performance of a 12 parallel channel GPS receiver that will run for 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. GARMIN's exclusive TracBack™ feature that will reverse your track log and help you navigate your way back home (2000 points plus 10 separate track files). In addition, the eTrex uses animated graphics that will help you identify your marked waypoints quickly and easily.
