Description:

Garmin Vista combines a basemap of Europe with a barometric altimeter and electronic compass. The compass provides bearing information while you're standing still and the altimeter determines your precise altitude. The eTrex Vista also boasts an internal memory capacity of 24 megabytes, which allows it to accept downloaded mapping data from Garmin's MapSource CD-ROMs. Like its predecessor, the eTrex Vista boasts a powerful 12 parallel channel GPS receiver and comes packaged in a small, sleek silver case with operating buttons located on either side of the unit. The case is completely waterproof to withstand immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. A PC interface cable is included.
