The price of $399 is a bit pricey but I found out a long time ago.if you want quality you will have to pay for it. The topo 9 and PN 60 do a great job of routing between jobs. I am a phoneman for at&t and do service work for them. This PN 60 is so fast it makes me smile every time I fire it up. The old PN 20 would take its time booting up. What the PN 60 records can be saved in the computer and trails and hi resolution maps can be sent to the PN 60. PN 60 has me down on the topo and I know with a glance where to go next. With Delorme's Topo 9 and this PN 60 I can count on fast accurate and fun trail - no trail bush wacks and can remain calm knowing even though we don't have a clue where we are at in the woods. That program has had me hauling boys out into the trails of So. I have been doing a program called Royal Rangers for over 20 years now.

With the Topo9 software I can look at the trail we are taking before we get there evaluating the ups and downs and can KNOW where it is that I am. I purchased the PN 60 about 3 weeks ago and it hasn't glitched yet.

I have had two Garmin hand helds and 2 PN series hand helds.

The 4.5 stars (as opposed to 5) is simply because there is a 'little' room for improvement in regards to the USB connection and Topo9 interface.Д«ut make no mistake, this GPSr is bulletproof, never has water issues, can easily be seen in full sunlight, and won't tear through batteries (I use lithium ions and will be purchasing the rechargeable pack from DeLorme).Д®ver since I started backpacking some 20 years ago these GPS devices have had me as a buyer.

Sorry this is so long, but hopefully someone can benefit from my research and this review.

The two times I've contacted them (once with a setup question and another time regarding a firmware update) they've been excellent and responded quickly to my questions. gpx files so just set up a free account, record your tracks, and stick them on website so you can set and monitor goals, get reports on your activities, etc.ДЄlso, a note regarding DeLorme's customer service: I've seen a few reviews complaining about these folks, but I've never had anything except excellent service from them.

Garmin's 'Connect' website really is fantastic though, but Delorme users don't have to miss out.

If I know I'm going to a new park or out of state I just download topo and aerial maps for local parks and go off-trail without fear of ever getting lost (don't worry, diehards - always carry a park map and small compass with me just in case). If you price buying those without the subscription (or trying to get the same things through Garmin) there's really no comparison. For $30/year (which has become a great Christmas gift from family) you get access to EVERYTHING Topo North America's Netlink has to offer (1:24k maps of the whole US, color aerial imagery, Hi-Res imagery in and around major US cities, etc.). I have nothing against the Garmin devices (many friends and fellow hikers love them), but the map pricing is a bit ridiculous. It came down to the 'gold standard' Garmin 60CSx or the PN60. I spent HOURS (possibly days) researching different devices. You'll probably read a lot of reviews that complain about the learning curve and I agree that it's not just a power up and go device, but the functionality and ability to customize almost every aspect of the PN-60 make it worth taking the time to learn it well. I'm a long-time hiker more recently a serious backpacker, and I hike (on non-trip weeks) about 15-20 miles/week.
