The Foretrex™ 201
is a wearable Personal
Navigator™, perfect for outdoor
and marine enthusiasts who
desire hands-free GPS navigation
in a lightweight, affordable
package. At a mere 2.75 ounces,
this waterproof wonder is
lighter than most watches, and
its wrist-top mount frees up
hands for outdoor activities.
Sporting an ergonomic wristband,
the Foretrex 201 is similar in
design to the
Forerunner 201,
yet is chocked full of GPS
navigation features found in
Garmin's popular
Geko
201
unit.
With a
user-friendly interface, the
rugged Foretrex 201 simplifies
navigation, making it ideal for
the backcountry or water. Its
six dedicated buttons (GoTo,
Page, Enter/Mark, Up, Down and
Power) make it easy to operate.
It offers the most essential
navigation data — enhanced GPS
accuracy, extensive storage for
waypoints, and reversible routes
and tracks — on an easy-to-read
display. Don't worry about
packing extra batteries, because
the Foretrex 201 runs on an
internal lithium battery for 15
hours (typical use). Simply
recharge and go.
The Foretrex
201 also comes equipped with
special features sure to please
mariners and hikers alike. It
includes a unique application
for sailing and paragliding
racers that allows them to
configure the start sequence of
a race. The countdown is
displayed in a large-number
format that audibly alerts the
user at each phase of the start
sequence. With the help of
Garmin's exclusive TracBack®
technology, hikers can mark a
campsite, go trekking all day,
and follow the electronic
"breadcrumb trail" back to camp
in time for dinner.
