HotFix satellite prediction helps find your position quickly and precisely while the high-sensitivity GPS maintains its signal even in heavy cover and deep canyons.

Comments about Garmin Garmin Oregon 450 Handheld GPS:
Rich in features but not easy to learn how to customize some of the screens. Garmin provides excellent support. Currently use stat screen to measure distance and speed while walking/biking but have downloaded maps from hiking sites for trips.
