Comments about GARMIN GPSMAP 62st:
This GPS is fantastic! With the additional birds eye imagery, this is far better than any map i have used, and essential when solo climbing or checking out new routes. The carabiner clip is great, keeps it handy on the chest. Expensive, but worth it.

Comments about GARMIN GPSMAP 62st:
After using a Garmin 60CSx for years, I expected an improvement when I bought the 62st. Instead, I find that the 62st has taken a step backwards in functionality. Time and date information is not available for the waypoints! You can't go back and see what time you left the trailhead! The information is not available! The data is there but you just can't get to it! I'm amazed that they left that out!
Also, if you don't change your batteries within a minute of the unit telling you the batteries are low, the unit will shut down and you will lose all your tracking data up to that point! The battery indicator says you have a fully charged battery until the moment the batteries run out!
The interface is confusing and unnecessarily complicated. Do you want to turn tracking off and on? Don't go to the Track Manager for that. Instead, you have to go through the main menu and settings to do that.
Be careful with the reset button - you might just reset all your settings to default when you're simply trying to reset your trip data. And resetting your trip data does not delete the saved tracks - you have to go to the track manager for that!
I've had this unit for over two months now and and have communicated with tech support 10-15 times and I still can't be satisfied with how this works. I'm going back to my 60CSx. It can at least tell time!
