The e-Trex Venture HC is very similar to other the Garmin E-Trex color units, with its 256-color, high resolution, TFT display that measures 1.3” x 1.7” and a resolution of 176 x 220. With its high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, eTrex Venture HC locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. Weighing in at 5.6 ounces, including two AA alkaline batteries, the Venture HC will help you travel light while providing up to 32 hours of use.

The Venture HC comes preloaded with the routable Americas Recreational basemap, including lakes, rivers, cities, interstates, national and state highways, railroads and coastlines. Venture HC also includes 24 MB of internal memory, so you can load waypoints and routes from the included MapSource® Trip & Waypoint Manager software and add map detail from Garmin's entire line of optional MapSource® mapping products. Its 256-color, sunlight-readable display makes it easy to distinguish map details — even in bright sunlight.

Each Venture HC is loaded with audible alarms for off-course, proximity waypoints, and anchor drag. The operation of the Venture HC is very easy allowing a novice to use it for hiking, biking, Geocaching, or getting you to your favorite fishing holes. Other features include: storage for 500 waypoints with symbol, 10,000 tracklog points, stopwatch, hunting/fishing calendar, and trip computer.

The Venture HC is a breeze to operate with just one hand, thanks to its small size and unique button layout.
