Magellan eXplorist 510 Waterproof Hiking Handheld GPS – A GPS Umbrella For Your Next Camp Out

February 9, 2011 by Carrie divider image

The Magellan eXplorist 510 Waterproof Hiking GPS does more than just keep you from getting lost in the great outdoors. Functioning in its primary field of expertise, it does a great job as a global positioning device, but it adds other features uniquely able to help you enjoy your time hiking and camping. Do you see some neat natural phenomenon or wildlife you want to catalog or enjoy later? Use the built-in 3.2 MP camera in coordination with the GPS locator to record the precise location so you can return at a later time and share your experience with others. The camera can also function on its own to provide you with memories of your woodland or lakeside adventure.

The audio capture also lets you create a verbal record of your outing when a camera fails. But what happens when your audio and pictures have eaten up all of the on-board storage? Simply slip in your removable microSD card and record away. As long as you have an available expansion card, you can record as many pictures and as much audio as you desire. Then sharing audio, video and GPS loaction information is as easy as loading to your laptop, smartphone or computer.

Many GPS devices come up lacking when weather conditions are concerned, but that is where the Magellan eXplorist 510 really excels. The 510 is more than just waterproof. It can actually withstand being submerged in water depths of one meter for a full 30 minutes. All functions are fully capable in rain, snow and wet weather conditions, and the large 3 inch touch screen makes for easy viewing and control regardless the meteorological conditions.

The eXplorist 510 is loaded with the most precise maps available. The massive World Edition Map delivers 2D and 3D viewing options, and has the complete network of roads in the United States, Canada, Western Europe, and Australia and major roads throughout the rest of the world. This patented map system doesn’t stop there, and also has urban and rural land markings and designations, as well as water features and a very realistic shade application.

2 AA batteries supply 10 hours of constant use, and you can join in the Geocaching frenzy by treasure-hunting for waterproof containers hidden across the United States, or hide your own containers for others to discover with the free 30 day trial subscription to GeoCaching.com. Alerts for the best hunt/fish times and sunrise/sunset alarms will keep you informed of the optimal times to get the maximum experience out of your next camping or hunting outing.

For waterproof GPS action, and a host of features that keep you from carrying an army of electronics, the Magellan eXplorist 510 Waterproof Hiking Handheld GPS fits the bill, and makes your outdoor experience better come rain or shine. Buy Now at Amazon.
