  • My 910 is clearly not up to the job and my phone was a hassle, so what are the approved navigation aids people recommend?

    Garmin 1000 looks good but spendy and the phone connectivity stuff seems ott.

    I saw some etrex on the audax, but they are bulky and would just give a breadcrumb trail, no?

    I'm in a grump with garmin after repeated crashes/data losses so I'd happily consider other brands but there aren't many viable alternatives and I'm already pretty embedded with other garmin devices and accessories.

    That's what you want. Don't use turn by turn on an audax or it will get too clever and re-route you and you will get lost. Believe me, I've tried it.
    I use a Garmin 705 which is pretty old but does the job.

  • I've found turn by turn on garmin 800 works pretty well, though has a habit of stopping working without warning (reloading the track fixes it). What you absolutely want to avoid is having the 'recalculate route' setting on, which guarantees things will go badly wrong.
