You'll do...
By Alarmed Mutant
I had the Garmin Foretrex 101 and it worked outstanding until it got stolen. I have the 301 now and it works just as well. The only problem I had with the 101 was the strap. It was held onto the GPS unit with crappy watch pins. I'm in the military, so if you have to put a heavy ruck on and off quickly, and you get the ruck strap caught on the GPS, the unit would pop off the strap. Then, you are attempting to find a tiny watch pin with NVGs on a mountain. Also, the strap that comes with it is just a bit too short, but the extension strap makes it too long. WTF?! It will hardly fit on your wrist with not one thing beneath it, but if you have a uniform on (ACU/BDU) you will have to use the extender and then it's too long and will move around.
