[QUOTE="SixDemonBag, post: 2215786, member: 113754"] I have been running GARMIN 66I with Inreach strapped to my bag and using the app on my phone to interface with the 66i since my phones screen is much larger. The 66i controls can be clunky to relearn you haven't been using the device for a while. I am all for the use of GPS. The funny thing is if I have been there once or twice I can find my way back there and vice versus - unless its DARK. The inreach is handy for when you roll an ankle solo or god forbid worse... Texting the wife at camp to let her know you are good to go is nice as well. Other than the above listed, I try not to dwell on it too much because otherwise, i might be pulling a Gandolf - "[I]I have no memory of this place.[/I]." ;) Last thing I want be doing is being glued to my phone vice watching for deer or animals that may want me for dinner. I mark my starting waypoint and use the backtrack feature when it is time to get back to camp. [/QUOTE]
