The eTrex Vista combines a base map of North and South America, with a barometric altimeter and electronic compass. The compass provides bearing information while you're standing still and the altimeter determines your precise altitude. The Vista is also designed to provide precise GPS positioning using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). This product will provide position accuracy to less than three meters when receiving WAAS corrections.

The eTrex Vista also boasts an internal memory capacity of 24 megabytes, which allows it to accept downloaded mapping data from Garmin's MapSource CD-ROMs, including Fishing Hot Spots. A silver case gives this unit a high-tech look. New to the product design, Garmin will include marine aids to navigation in addition to the base map. These navigational aids can be pre-loaded into each unit from the factory.

It is compatible with most Garmin MapSource products including BlueChart marine cartography, MetroGuide, and Fishing Hot Spots. Accepts up to 24 megabytes of downloaded map detail.

    Best GPS value

    By Wesley R  Aug 24, 2004 | 5 out of 5 found this Garmin eTrex Vista review helpful

    Pros: Magnetic compass, barometric altimeter

    Cons: Software is expensive and mediocre

    For the price, this GPS is the best thing going. Don't underestimate the usefulness of the magnetic compass and barometric altimeter. When the trees block the signal from the satellite, they're all you've got.
