Hi I am new to this forum and in the next 10 days I will be going for a hiking trip with my colleagues while most of them have gone on such trips previously but this is my first hike and arranging some of the essential gear for the trip.
So I am here in this forum to find a good handheld GPS device suggestions from people who have experience on such devices. I am looking for a low cost as this is my first hiking trip also planning to go on hiking trips in future too. As of now, I am thinking to buy one of these devices Garmin eTrex 20x or GPSMAP 64S as they seem to be affordable yet have good features. However, I do have difficulty in using buttoned devices but thinking I would get comfortable over time.
I would be glad if someone who used these devices previously could help me whether the devices are suitable for hiking trips or do they have any problems. If you think any other GPS device would be much better please suggest the device.
