    Default Trip to Arizona

    I'm planning my first taste of non-UK caching in Arizona over Christmas/ new year - simple question what do I need to update on my Garmin Colorado to ensure a successful trip?

    RB, the settings are all the same ie WGS84. Obviously you can buy additional mapping to include guidance if you want it.

    Don't miss the Grand Canyon which is an amazing experience. Enjoy your trip.

    Might take awhile for the unit to aquire the sats.
    (Keep an eye on it, you should be asked if you want to re-start the search, and will be asked things like 'are you more than 500 miles from where you were last?')

    There are FREE maps from http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/, if you want mapping.
    I have a Geocaching problem...
