FeaturesThe newly designed GPSMAP 62sc handheld navigator is loaded with amazing features. It gives you a 3-axis tilt-compensated compass, a barometric altimeter, a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, and supports Custom Maps and BirdsEye Satellite imagery (subscription required). Not only is it waterproof, its quad helix antenna gives you unmatched reception. It also has a high-speed USB connection, a beautiful new design and connects wirelessly to compatible Garmin handhelds.
Know where you are
A 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass is built in to your GPSMAP 62sc, so you’ll know your heading even if you aren’t standing still or holding it level. And the barometric altimeter tracks pressure changes to give you an accurate altitude reading. You can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which helps you anticipate changing weather.
Go social
Your GPSMAP 62sc allows you to share waypoints, tracks, geocaches and routes wirelessly with other compatible Garmin devices. Just press “send” to transfer your information to your friends.
Capture the moment
The GPSMAP 62sc gives you an amazing built-in 5 megapixel autofocus camera that lets you capture the moments and places that matter most in your journey. The camera geotags each photos with the location it was taken, which means you can always find your way back to that spot.
Know where you are
GPSMAP 62sc has a quad helix antenna that combines with high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction to determine your location quickly and accurately, no matter your surrounding terrain.
Customize your maps
The GPSMAP 62sc comes with a worldwide basemap with shaded relief. But, with Garmin’s collection of detailed topographic, marine and road maps, you can add and customize your GPSMAP 62sc’s maps by using its 3.5 gigabytes of onboard memory to download 24K and 100k topo maps for your day on the trails. If you’re hitting the water, just insert BlueChart g2 preloaded cards. And if you’re preparing for a road trip, City Navigator NT map data provides turn-by-turn directions. GPSMAP 62sc supports subscription-based BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, which integrates satellite images with your maps. And, GPSMAP 62sc is compatible with the free software Custom Maps, which transforms paper and electronic maps into downloadable files.
All your data in one place
With a connection to your computer and the internet, you can get detailed analysis of your activities, and send tracks to your outdoor device with Garmin Connect. You’ll get activity tables and a chance to see your activities on a Google Earth map. You can explore routes uploaded by millions of Garmin Connect users, and share your experience on Twitter and Facebook.
A geocacher’s dream
Your GPSMAP 62sc can download geocaching GPX files. Your device stores and displays key details, including terrain, location, difficulty, hints and descriptions. You won’t need any more printouts or manually-entered coordinates. Just upload the GPX file to your unit and start hunting. Visit OpenCaching.com to get started.

Product ReviewsFollowing reviews were written by actual customers. Every GPS4US customer has a chance to live a feedback after receiving a product.  by Terry C, , 9/16/2014 Previously I used the Map 60. Enjoy the familiarity of the 62 and appreciated the increased speed of the 62 at acquiring a position.  by some G, , 7/8/2014 Like it.  by SEZER O, , 5/20/2014 Useful and hand friend shape...  by Bruce T, , 4/29/2013 Very nice GPS. This unit is very accurate, seen accuracy sometimes down to five feet!! My last GPS, Oregon 200 was good to about 30 feet accuracy.
The screen is highly visible in the sun light, unlike my old touch screen Oregon. I use this GPS on my ATV in a fixed mount. The old Oregon is better in the hand were you can tilt it to different angles to see it in the bright sun, not so with the Gpsmap 62sc, it''s great at just about any angle in the sun.
Overall a great GPS!!  by RODRIGO T, , 12/12/2012 Very good product, really is a top of the line. Only need to buy some maps. I really recommend it. Good price.  by Ronald R W, , 6/18/2012 very pleased with it  by Joe K, , 5/12/2012 Very good,advanced and easy to use.
