a really good way to keep from getting lost
When first trying this GPS, I was not that impressed. The map options that Magellan has are either very poor, or very expensive. After a couple uses, the novelty was gone, and i was left with a GPS that i didnt think was worth even carrying around. Then i found a site that sold hi resolution TOPO maps, and for $7.00 i purchased a full set of USA maps. What a deal ! Magellan sells National Geographic maps, but theyre cost prohibitive, at $100+ they cost kore than the GPS. Now, the GPS is more than a novelty, it has become a part of every journey. I would suggest adding a set of LiPo batteries, as regular alkaline batteries only last about 4 hours, if the unit is allowed to auto-log your hike. With the LiPo batteries its good for a sun-up to sun-down journey.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Look I want to WARN all whom may buy one of these GPS--there are two kinds and they look identical- the map screen needs to have little boxes at botto
Look I want to WARN all whom may buy one of these GPS--there are two kinds and they look identical- the map screen needs to have little index boxes at bottom -THEN it is knock off type and will NOT "GOTO" properly to a waypoint. Second way to tell -when you get it save a Waypoint-walk 200ft then go to that waypoint-if the green arrow and black arrow both do not show then you have a knock off. The ORIGINAL MAG TRITON 500 are awesome-the knock offs will get you lost BIGTIME. So they look the same -same color-same screen-not same software...Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

GPS Technology Missing an Interface
The Magellan Triton 500 performs as well as a Garmin 6x. Unfortunately, it does not come with a topo base map.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Not bad for the price
There are more expensive models but this one works just as good. With out the additional maps, which are as expensive as the unit, its just as accurate as other models. I you dont need the fancy maps its great for the price.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
