 		 We have purchased several of these units to use in the Wildland Fire services. Great units and easy to use. Can download basemaps from third party individuals online for use with Garmin Mapsource.

 		 I replaced my old etrex Legend Cx with this Vista HCx and what an improvement. Ths accuracy and receiving capabilities are very much improved I have used it in deep narrow canyons and heavy forest areas with no loss of signal. The only thing I wish was better is the electronic compass though very accurate it is a bit jumpy.

 		 This is my fourth gps. I have an old e-trex legend and decided on the new more sensitive circuitry in the Vista HCX along with the extended battery life. I use it for bicycling as well as sea kayaking and hiking. It outshines my older models and hasn't let me down. I have two complaints. One: the inability to navigate to different screens with the thumb toggle. (The legend was a little easier in this respect) Two: the mapping software manufacturer has given into greed! The earlier mapping programs permitted the use of two separate units the new NT will only allow one unit. If you have a second Garmin unit you have to purchase another complete mapping software! All in all I would recommend this to anyone wanting a light, dependable GPS.

 		 This gps is very useful for all handheld needs. It has been very accurate for geocaching, and is also very useful when your on the road.
