Manufacturer Description

Neither deep foliage, nor canyons phase the rugged Garmin eTrex Vista HCx. Its high-sensitivity receiver holds a GPS signal in the toughest environments. Similar to the Vista Cx, this handheld navigator also has a bright color screen, barometric altimeter, electronic compass, microSD card slot and automatic routing for wherever adventure takes you.

Enjoy Clear Reception
With its high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, the Garmin eTrex Vista HCx locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear - whether you're in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on the Garmin eTrex Vista HCx to help you find your way when you need it the most.

Get Your Bearings
The Garmin eTrex Vista HCx has a built-in electronic compass that provides bearing information even while you're standing still, and its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. You can even use the altimeter to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.

Expand Your Memory
Adding maps is easier than ever with the Garmin eTrex Vista HCx's microSD card slot. Conveniently plug in optional preloaded microSD cards with MapSource data for your land and sea excursions. Just insert a MapSource card with detailed street maps, and the Garmin eTrex Vista HCx provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination. The card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you don't have to worry about getting it wet.

Take It Anywhere
Like the rest of the eTrex series, the Garmin eTrex Vista HCx is lightweight and compact - the perfect size for all your travels.

Other Garmin eTrex Vista HCx features:
  • Waterproof, so it can withstand the elements or an accidental dunk in water.
  • Crisp 256-color, sunlight-readable display makes it easy to distinguish map details - plus, it looks fantastic
  • Fast USB computer connection so you can transfer waypoints and other data to your computer
  • eTrex Vista HCx: Lock onto the great outdoors.
