Rated 5 out of 5 by McCloud77 Real handy GPS unit.
The Garmin 450 gps unit was easy to set up and am still learning all of the features it has to offer. I have been using my gps at work practicing with it while I am checking directions, latitude and longitude on work surveys and it seems to be very accurate. I have not had a chance to use it in the mountains hunting, but I know it will be a great asset when the time comes to remember those special hunting spots and being able to find them again.

This unit is fantastic. The screen is bright and clear and it works great even in tricky environments.
The firmware updates are great and they tend to address all issues. The newest allows you to view your track like an automotive GPSr would, showing you from the vehicle's perspective.
I have been using this in all types of environments and weather and it continues to be reliable and accurate. I think that the durability and the waterproofing is what gives me added confidence, since I might need to leave my iPhone behind at times for fear I will damage it, but never my Oregon450!
It has become a main staple on all my adventures, whether it be hiking, canoeing, or camping I will never be without it.

Excellent features. I especially like the paperless geocaching feature. Easy to learn applications and features made it easy to get out on the trail quickly. I recommend this GPS highly.

GPS has all the features of the Garmin 76Csx and more. The ability to use scanned paper maps and aerial photos.
Alkaline battery life is less than what was anticipated. The Oregon uses batteries about twice as fast as the 76Csx.
