 Rating:  - Good but I miss my old GPS60CSxHaving lost my GPS60CSx in France earlier this year I decided on the Colorado as a replacement. I took this unit to Everest Base Camp and loaded it with the relevanty TOPO maps. I found that I needed several sets of batteries a day with each set lasting around three hours which meant that tracking was an expensive luxury. Also the unit would switch off for no reason. Whilst I like the large display it is dim unless you ramp up the backlight which drains the batteries. I was getting twenty hours plus ...

This is now a truely excellent unit. Well done Garmin. I bought this device to replace my garmin vista C which I have owned for 4 years and used for road travel and off road biking. If you are serious about geting out in the wilds this is a great unit of course you need to buy the TOPO mapping the base mapping with these units is always basic. I am just loadng the ...

I was so unimpressed with it I sent it straight back without unwrapping it, so refer to other reviewers points of view for that. Great service from ...

The problems with it have included "map up" not working, the battery level indicator has a mind of it's own, the route on the screen moves all over the place and is often just visable in only a corner of the screen. The device has habit of switching off when it feels like it, especially when changing from the map screen to the trip screen. Apart from these major problems there are a host of other minor complaints. You need to have regular trips to the gymn to make sure ... Read More Rating:  - Garmin Colorado 300Bought Colorado 300 last month, looks good, but many problems encountered similar to other reviews. unit locked up several times requiring battery removal. Unit also turns off without warning. On Navigation page, huge drawback is Distance to NEXT. If there are multiple waypoints entered into a route - with landmarks at each, such as path junctions or outcrops etc, NEXT means nothing, without reviewing the wawpoints on the route via several menus, to ascertain where you are in the route.
