FeaturesWhat does the eTrex 30 do? Well, for one, it improves on one of the most
popular and reliable GPS handhelds. It features paperless geocaching,
expanded mapping capabilities and an improved interface to create a more
versatile, user-friendly eTrex, while keeping its toughness and
durability intact.
Tough against the weather
The eTrex
30 features a 2.2-inch, 65,000 color sunlight readable display. And the
eTrex 30 is strong against the weather with its durable and waterproof
body. Whether you’re facing dust, dirt, water or humidity, the eTrex 30
is a survivor against the elements.
New tools for your trek
The
eTrex 30 gives you a 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass which
shows your heading even when you aren’t moving or holding it level.
Garmin also included a barometric altimeter, tracking pressure changes
to pinpoint your precise altitude. Plus, use your eTrex 30 to plot
barometric pressure over time to tip you off to changing weather.
Mobility is key
eTrex
30’s wide range of compatible mounts means you can use it on your car,
motorcycle or boat, ATV or bicycle. Of course, you can also use it in
your hand. The auto mount capability and City Navigator NT® maps give
you turn-by-turn driving directions. Or you can use the rugged mount for
your motorcycle or ATV.
The GLONASS advantage
You’ve
never seen this before. How do we know? Because the eTrex series are the
first consumer-grade receivers that can simultaneously track both GPS
and GLONASS satellites. GLONASS satellites, developed by the Russian
Federation in 2012, locks on to positions an average of 20 percent
faster than GPS. When using both GLONASS and GPS, the eTrex 30 can lock
onto 24 more satellites than using just GPS.
Customize with your maps
The
eTrex 30 features a microSD card slot and 1.7 GB of internal memory,
allowing you to load TOPO 24K maps. Hit the water by plugging in
BlueChart® g2 preloaded cards, and get step-by-step directions to the
beach with City Navigator NT® map data. eTrex 30 supports BirdsEye
Satellite Imagery (but you’ll need a subscription) that gives you the
power to download satellite images and integrate them with your maps.
Go social
eTrex
30 allows you to let your friends know where you are and what you’ve
found. You can share your waypoints, tracks, geocaches and routes
wirelessly with other compatible Garmin GPS devices. All you have to do
is press “send” to transfer your information.
Know where you are
Even
in deep canyons or heavy cover, eTrex uses its high-sensitivity,
WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction to find your
position quickly and precisely.
Bring your geocaching to the next level
eTrex
30 is the perfect device for your geocaching adventures. It supports
geocaching GPX files for downloading and storing geocaching details.
eTrex 30 stores and displays key geocaching information, including
location, terrain, difficulty, hints and descriptions. All you have to
do is upload the GPX files to your unit. Visit OpenCaching.com to begin.
