## Overview

The Garmin eMap Hiking GPS is a lightweight, user-friendly device designed for outdoor enthusiasts. It features a 2.8-inch backlit display, tracks speed and distance, and includes comprehensive maps of major American roadways, making it an essential companion for any hiking adventure.

## Description

.com          The size of a small, flat calculator, the eMap contains a 12-parallel-channel global positioning system receiver and weighs a mere six ounces. Even with its compact style, the eMap boasts an extra-large display for showing more map data and the same power you've come to expect from Garmin hand-helds--even while operating for up to 14 hours on two AA batteries. The eMap features an internal base map containing information on North and South America including state and country boundaries, lakes, rivers, streams, airports, cities, towns, coastlines, and U.S., state, and interstate highways. In addition, the eMap provides exit information for the federal interstate highway system. With the eMap, you will know when you are near services such as food, lodging, and service stations. The eMap is compatible with Garmin's line of downloadable MapSource CD-ROMs including U.S. Roads and Recreation, WorldMap, U.S. Topo, and MetroGuide U.S.A. When paired with the MetroGuide U.S.A. CD-ROM, the eMap has the ability to look up address and telephone number information for nearby services and points of interest. The eMAP will store 8 or 16 MB of downloaded CD-ROM information at a time depending on the size of the cartridge you use in the unit. Designed with all types of users in mind, this unit will take you from the car to the hiking trail and beach without missing a beat.

    WASTE OF MONEY!
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2017*

WORTHLESS!  Just opened it because I'm getting ready to go Colorado Elk Hunting and it has no maps & will not turn on!!! Now I have to spend more $ to buy 1 that really works.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The GPS money pit
  

*by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2003*

I've been using this unit for a few weeks now and it never fails to amaze me with it's capabilities even if the learning curve for it is a bit steep (an instructional video is available for an additional charge).  I'm sure there are features I'll never use due to its complexity.  The problem I have is that it comes with nothing.  If you want to actually be able to use the unit, you've got to go back to Garmin and buy additional accessories and guess what, ... their all proprietary so they can and do charge whatever they feel like.  Things like the computer/power adapter and a memory card should have been included for the price they're asking for the unit.  The memory sticks... and the USB adapter  are outrageously priced.  Yeah, that's right, the computer/power adapter isn't even USB, you have to buy both or your stuck with the glacial speed of serial.  To further illustrate, to replace the little piece of plastic that covers the batteries, it'll cost you nearly $7!  Basically, they put a pretty good little GPS on the market as bait to lock you into their brand and sell, at ridiculous prices, accessories that should have come with it anyways.  I would give the unit by itself 4 stars but for Garmin's complete lack of integrity.
