hi smith, i'm glad i came across your video, i found it very easy to follow your instructions .watched #2 as well, liked them both. i hope you post some more. izzy
excellent a/v, thank you. i am just stating metal detection and purchased a magellan 315 gps. this seems to be a good unit for beginners. wondering in a wooded area looking for relics should be much safer. will continue watching your series. thank you again.
Sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the password. I would love any help you can give me
@Jordan Crosby I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Great video, very helpful, thanks! I have an old etrex vista cox that I want to test. I’ve tried some smart phone apps, but they use up about 75% of my phone charge. I put it on airplane mode when there’s no cell service so it won’t use my data. I feel the Garmin GPS (or Magellan) is more dependable - just always carry 2 extra AA batts! LOL!
@Z3Carpentry Most of the newer GPS receivers allow for downloads of custom topo maps. I am not sure about that trail specifically, but I am sure there should be something out there. With the Magellan Triton 400 I have some custom maps of my area that actually show satellite image. Storage space on the unit will be the main concern with larger maps. Hope that helps, and thanks a lot for watching the vid :-)
Very nice tutorial on the handheld GPS, thank you and look forward to more educational advice on the trail. Are you a teacher by profession by chance? From sunny south Florida.
Excellent real World intro to gps video for beginners! That's pretty much exactly how i play with -- er umm i mean: test my navigation equipment. ;D Although Bethlehem doesn't have such awesome falls! Is the breadcrumbs term from your gps or manual? i've actually thought thought of the trail track feature as the digital version of leaving breadcrumbs behind you. XD Also; very cool using Gordon Lightfoot! Hey, know of any FREE dowloadable gps maps sources? i've had no luck on that.
can you tell us your opinion of the magellan triton 300/400 not sure which of the two you have. perhaps in comparison with some gamin equivalent (like the extrex 10)
Thank-you! very nice indications, effective and practical !.. Count you'll add something more detailed for advanced functions, like managing maps, plannong routes on pc and then transfering to gps, ... Bye for now.
Just an idea I've purchased a portable charger for my I phone and carry extra batteries for my GPS. Oh, also take a map and compass and rain poncho. Coast Guard moto Semper Peradus (always ready). Good hiking, for me there is nothing as great hike on a wilderness trail..
hi I have a Magellan 110 gps I got 2 weeks ago .but do not know how to delete WAYPOINTS and TRACKS can you or someone on here please do a video on how to DELETS them please .please by the way love the place looks like a good place to go camping for a few days
So I was at school today and I have this teacher where you can do anything in her class, while I was grinding fortnite mobile on my phone the assistant principal came in and saw me on my phone. So I said I was researching math but he saw through my bull crap and gave me detention. So I am in detention right now, thanks for the vid I guess.
Folks, handheld GPS units like this will soon be vanishing. Smart phones will take over almost all applications. Smart phone GPS apps have free maps, much better screen resolution, easier interface, and are much much less expensive. Search UA-cam for "Gaia GPS" to learn about one of the best ones.
okay if both your cell phone battery is not dead, and as long as you have cell coverage. if you're actually lost, i dont want to rely on my iphone, the battery would be dead by 2pm if i used the mapping app. this unit saves my battery phone and will run all day without cell coverage.
Steve, you bring up a common misconception. You do NOT need cell coverage to use a smartphone GPS app like Gaia. the GPS chip works fine all on it's own. Carrying an aux battery and a tiny charging cable is cheap and light (about $20 and 4 ounces). Sure, if you are using your GPS constantly in tricky terrain, than a dedicated GPS may be a good choice. But if you are using a GPS more as an occasional check to ensure your map and compass are keeping you on course, then a phone is prolly better for most users. Try the phone app and see if it suits your needs.
you're totally right. and yes, iphone gps is very accurate, maybe even more than this. everyone has a different use case. in my case, i want a dedicated device to track where i'm going on vacation so i can geo tag my photos from my DSLR later (and other cameras) so for the price, its only a few $ more for this than a GPS logger and i think way more reliable. with a pair of lithium e3 batteries, you can get a few days of continuous run time and not worry about making sure the app on your cell phone is actually working correctly. for me, its worth $150 for a dedicated logger that does more and i can clip it to my bag and forget about it for the day.

Just wondering what/which portable coffee do you backpack?

Excellent video. You have a good narrator's voice--you should be working in the field.
He gives you the GPS coordinates. Right by Alouette Lake on the west side.
At the end, you said you were about to lose your battery. Why was that? The battery indicator was showing green/almost full.

Can you download maps/trails? Appalacian Trail?

Always carry a map/compass
So----Magellan or Garmin?
Where are you?
