A couple years ago I bought a Garmin Colorado 300 and the downloadable Lac Seul map from Trakmaps. The garmin works well and the map was easy to install and unlock.
Garmin: $250.00
Lac Seul Map: $79.00.
4 2700Mah AA Nimh rechargeable batteries: $30.00
Being able to find your way back: PRICELESS
One down side to Garmin Colorado is that it eats 2 standard AA batteries in a matter of a couple hrs. Tried the ultra cell and lithium type and it lasts about 4-8 hrs but I just couldnt stand chucking that many batteries in the garbage. The best I have found are 2700Mah AA NiMH type batteries. This was the only type of battery that I could get close to the 15 hr run time that Garmin states on the specs page for the Colorado.
Happy fishing!
