The
Foretrex 101 is a wrist GPS navigator that frees
up your hands so you can focus on your outdoor activities. The
Foretrex 101 has all the features and functionality of the Foretrex
201, including the GPS navigation features of the Geko
201 unit and PC interface capabilities for downloading waypoints,
tracks and routes, but operates on two AAA batteries rather than
an internal rechargeable battery.
Its
easy-to-use interface and basic GPS capabilities are perfect for outdoor enthusiasts
who would rather replace the batteries than recharge the unit in the field. This
unit features Garmin's intuitive operating logic, utilizing six dedicated buttons
to simplify navigation. Whether it's a campsite, deer stand, or other place of
interest, users can mark its location, identify the waypoint, and navigate to
it later using the GoTo function. Also, with the help of Garmin's exclusive TracBackŪ
technology, users can retrace their steps by following an electronic breadcrumb
trail back to their original starting point.
Because
the unit is waterproof, the Foretrex 101 is a natural companion on watersport
adventures like kayaking, canoeing, boating and sailing. In fact, this device
incorporates another feature found on the Foretrex 201: a sailboat-racing timer.
Competitors can configure the countdown sequence prior to the start of the race
and utilize their GPS location to be in the best possible tacking position when
the race begins.
