When the terrain gets tough, you can depend on the GPSMAP 62s handheld navigator to guide you through, with 3-axis tilt-compensated compass and barometric altimeter. Inspired by the powerful GPSMAP 60 series, this rugged and waterproof GPS combines high-precision accuracy with high functionality to brave the demands of any terrain you dare to tackle – wherever the adventure, whatever the activity.
- 3-axis, tilt-compensated electronic compass shows your heading even when you're standing still and holding the unit upright or at an angle

Used in Gobi March 2011 Review by Mary Gadams
How do you Rate this Product This GPS was used by our course team in the Gobi March 2011. I also used this GPS. It is a great tool, so reliable and for sure 100% necessary when in the Gobi March where there is never direct line of site. There are several good improvements over the previous model, easier to navigate, easier screen to read, etc. A serious tool for experts and amateurs alike. (Posted on 22/07/2011)
