FeaturesNo matter what you’re doing, if you’re outdoors,
the Montana 600 will be your guide. The 4-inch color touchscreen has a
dual orientation display
and supports several mapping options like
BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, BlueChart g2 and TOPO US 24k. Plus, Montana
600 boasts a 3-axis
tilt-compensated compass and barometric
altimeter, so you’ll always know your altitude and direction. And, when
you’re using the Montana 600 in
your car with the separate auto mount and City Navigator NT maps, you get spoken turn-by-turn directions.
Crystal clear
You’ll
see everything with the Montana’s 4-inch sunlight-readable touchscreen
display. That means vivid colors and amazing high-resolution images.
The
interface is easy to use, so you’ll spend more time admiring nature and
less time with your head buried in your GPS. Of course, the Montana
600
is waterproof and durable enough to withstand almost anything Mother
Nature can throw at it. So no matter if you’re on your boat, RV, ATV or
just your hiking boots, the Montana is there for you.
Versatile, just for you
The
Montana 600 is compatible with a variety of mounts, so you can use it
on your ATV, in your boat, in your car or in your hand. For turn-by-turn
directions in your car, use the auto mount with City Navigator
maps. Use the rugged mount for your motorcycle or ATV. Above all, don’t
shy away
from the terrain. The Montana 600 has the maps and mounts to get you where you need to go.
Customize your maps
You’ll
have zero problems adding Garmin’s variety of detailed topographic,
marine and road maps to your Montana 600. The microSD card slot makes
sure
of that. The load TOPO 24k maps and get going, or insert BlueChart g2
preloaded cards and hit your boat. If you’re driving, City Navigator
map
data will make your road trip easier. The Montana 600 supports
subscription-based BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, so you can download
satellite
images and integrate them with your maps. Plus, Montana
600 works with Custom Maps, free software that turns paper and
electronic maps into
downloadable gold mines.
Go social
The
Montana 600 lets you share routes, tracks, waypoints and geocaches with
other compatible Garmin users. Just press “send” to give your friends
your favorite hikes or caches.
Know where you are
The
high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite
prediction means the Montana 600 can tell you where you are quickly and
accurately. And, no matter your surrounding terrain, it keeps your fix.
Know your position
With
a 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, the Montana 600 shows
your heading even when you’re not moving or holding it level. Plus, the
barometric
altimeter tracks changes in pressure to give you an accurate altitude.
You can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which
helps you anticipate changes in the weather.
Twice the power
When
it comes to batteries, you have options. The Montana 600 features a
dual battery system that uses a rechargeable lithium-ion pack or regular
AA batteries.
A geocacher’s dream

unit. Just visit OpenCaching.com to start. The Montana stores and
displays key information like difficulty, terrain, hints and descriptions.

Product ReviewsFollowing reviews were written by actual customers. Every GPS4US customer has a chance to live a feedback after receiving a product.  by Curtis G, , 2/10/2012 I like this a lot for the reasons everybody has covered.
Screen brightness has been fine for me.
Big Glitches:
1----On the several other Garmin units I have owned (including 76cxs), you could view the PROPERTIES of a track. That included the acreage. The Montana has no view of properties at all. You can display it on the map but that's it. No time, date, etc.
I know the data are still in there because you can transfer a Track to Mapsource and see all the properties including acreage. The only way to get acreage on the Montana is to choose a special menu item to Measure Acreage. THEN !.. you have record the acreage. Big boo boo!
2---Since everything is touch screen, you have to lock the screen before you put the unit in your pocket to avoid accidentally disturbing the display setting. That's ok. BUT... the display never turns off. So... if you walk for a couple hours, the display stays on and drains your battery. Big boo boo!
