The economical Foretrex™ 101
is the wrist-mount GPS that frees up your
hands so you can focus on your outdoor
activities. This product joins the
Foretrex 201 in Garmin’s growing line of
wearable, wrist navigation devices. The
Foretrex 101 has all the features and
functionality of the Foretrex 201, including
PC interface capabilities for downloading
waypoints, tracks and routes, but operates
on two AAA batteries.
It’s easy-to-use interface
and basic GPS capabilities are perfect for
outdoor enthusiasts who would rather replace
the batteries than recharge the unit in the
field. This unit features Garmin’s intuitive
operating logic, utilizing six dedicated
buttons to simplify navigation. Whether it’s
a campsite, deer stand, or other place of
interest, users can mark its location,
identify the waypoint, and navigate to it
later using the GoTo function. Also, with
the help of Garmin’s exclusive TracBack®
technology, users can retrace their steps by
following an electronic breadcrumb trail
back to their original starting point.
Because the unit is
waterproof, the Foretrex 101 is a natural
companion on watersport adventures like
kayaking, canoeing, boating and sailing. In
fact, this device incorporates another
feature found on the Foretrex 201: a
sailboat-racing timer. Competitors can
configure the countdown sequence prior to
the start of the race and utilize their GPS
location to be in the best possible tacking
position when the race begins.
