This really is the best "how to use" guide for hikers and climbers. January 21, 2010

I'm an alpine climber and have had a Garmin GPS for a few years now, however, the user guide materials leave a lot to be desired. I wanted more of a practical use guide for navigating in the field and also for plotting courses on my PC and then using them in the field. I really was not interested in GPS use in a car, or airplane, or a kayak, etc. I use my GPS for wilderness navigation and mountaineering., so I wanted a book that would show me specifically how to use my GPS features in those settings. I ended up researching and purchasing several promising looking books that claimed to fit the bill. This one is far and away the best one. The instructions--many of them based on practical scenarios--are excellent, as are the images and screencaptures (the screencaptures of GPS user screens are mostly from Garmin GPSs, so its all the more user friendly for Garmin users.
Great Book .. September 8, 2009

You want to know about the GPS / GPSr? This is a great book on the subject. It tells you all the need to know stuff and then some. It does so in an easy to understand manner.
