    This was my first GPS purchase and I am thrilled with it. I used my Mom's Oregon 200 some and I liked it so I knew that I wanted the same type of unit. I bought this for geocaching and it works great.

    This is my first hand-held GPS, but I have used several laptop and PDA-based GPS's in the past. The Garmin Oregon 450 attracted me because it was rugged and had the capability of adding detailed topo maps, city navigation maps, and custom maps in a very small package.

    This is a great GPS unit for hiking, but it's pricey and has a screen that can be hard to read. The best part has been that it's been getting steadily better with firmware updates from Garmin.
