    Extremely useful, however the 401 also works just as well for basic outdoor navigation

    Pretty good when my DAGR is dead or not calibrated right. Great for pacing yourself during a ruck.

    I fitst purchased the similar Foretrex 101 about 15 years ago when as an active windsurfer I noted a large number of frequent enthuiasts were wearing the device both as a real time speedometer and for its resetable max speed display. Also interesting to let the odometer track your surprising days milage. It was my best sailing buddy for years, and also worn sometimes for skiing and big boat sailing. About 5 years back, the scratched and worn window got smashed in a ws crash. These units definately need a screen protector for active use. The total ascent or descent display is great for hikers and skiers. Wrist mount pefect for many active uses. Only a b/w plotter screen, it doesn’t load maps. Lots of display windows you can cycle through. Although today I am physically unable to ws, I just got around to replacing it, partly for reminisic purposes. A few comments: Not much changed from the original Garmin product. Memory limitations for waypoints and tracks surprisingly limited in this era of cheap memory. The time of day field for a multitude of functions do not include a seconds display. And for use in common sail races, it does not have a timer countdown with seconds display. For the want of modest firmware programing, a lot of potetial fuctionallity has been skipped. Satellite lock is very tenacious.

    Got this for my step son who is in the army. He’s been demoted twice since we gifted this to him. If you have intelligence this will be 5 stars. He’s not that smart.

    People thinking this will do more than it is intended to. Tracks your footsteps in case you get lost, creates way points, how many miles you have hiked, etc etc. have had all the foretrex.

    It had a very difficult time acquiring satellite reception.

    Ich habe mir das Foretrex als Ersatz für mein altes gelbes Etrex der ersten Generation gekauft.

    As long as you have extra batteries always with you this bulky item could save your life. When your in the boonies, even maps with compasses can confuse the most well trained. This item will get you back to safety. That being said still carry maps and mislspec compasses redundancy means survival!

    It is is all in the planning. I replaced a foretrex 101 with the foretrex 601 taking advantage of the new features, plotting routes and transferring from a pc (or Mac) to the 601. Ideal for hands free navigation while walking. I bought some rechargeable batteries which are easy to change over even when walking! I plot routes on my pc and mobile with anquet software and digital ordnance survey maps. I use the mobile instead of a paper map and checking the mobile by exception - relying on the foretrex 601 to guide me on my pre-planned route.
