Hey guys, Long time reader, first time poster here in the great outdoors thread.
So long story short is that a couple friends and myself are looking to do some camping away from Purdue and Indiana over spring break. We're heading to the Grand Canyon Area and doing general backwoods hiking and camping.
I'm a seasoned camper, wilderness lover and aced my orienteering badge in scouts back in the day, but since the times have changed and technology is great, we are looking to ditch the maps and get a GPS to kind of guide us to and from.
So does anyone have any experience with a good, reliable, outdoors GPS? What do you recommend, what are the price points and where could I find the best deal on one? Black and white or color doesn't matter. Not looking for a lot of features other than being able to set way-points and to pull up the info of where we are and where we have been.
Any info would be great. Also since it's my first time out to the Grand Canyon, if you have any tips or recommendations, that would be great! Thanks guys
