: Jim, just finished a trip in Maine, my paddling buddy/navigator had a e-trex
: and it was great, moving along fog covered coastlines.

I just got back from a trip to Isle Royale on Lake Superior. Prior to the trip I manually entered the coordinates of various campsites that I was able to find from aerial photographs at http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/default.asp

It was very cool to see the e-trex "go to" arrow guide us in within 100 feet of our sites.

usgs aerial pics and maps
