Hot hiking/woods, can you enter GPS DMS and tell it to guide you there?

Yes you can and there are many ways to accomplish it... I have four GPS units. One is in my Van, the GPSMAP for geocashing and kayaking and I have for my bicycle. All Garmin and out of all of them my favorite one is the 62St. I have though about selling it several times because I do not kayak anymore and it is really bulky for the bicycle but because it is very good when it comes to receiving from satellites I hold on to it.... Very accurate and built really solid......

Do you mean gps? There's an option to export the data from the garmin connect page.

Garmin's are amazing for exactly what you want. If the user is experienced with maps, I'd recommend getting a model that offers Topographic maps which will help with route planning if they're going off-trail.

One more thing - a golf GPS? Have you gotten lost playing golf? Not a golfer, but sounds dangerous!! :-)

Yes, go to "Settings". No, GPS will not continue work. So far, very happy with battery life.

The easiest way by far is via an ant+ device like a Garmin, but it does have a USB and you can communicate direct to a PC. I feel like you lose a lot of the functionality that way though and it's a little kludgy.

No, and so far noMap updates available.Get yourself a waterproof case for the Garmin, I stopped using this and put my Garmin in a case.

yes, you can plan your routes in google maps ( or any other similar mapping application ) and then import the routes into GPS unit. The maps can be updated as well.

SD or SDHD and yes you could take it walking with you, as long as you're walking where there are streets. I'm not sure how it would work if your talking about a stroll in the woods.

The software that comes on it uses the same maps as Garmin and it does show the forest service roads. Also, if you can plot a route on Google maps ahead of time then you can import the route and the GPS will follow it. But I do not know specifically about ORV trails.

There is a mini SD card slot for navigation. I would think that any maps that can be downloaded to the mini SD card could be loaded into the navigation.

Yes. There is a basic base map in your GPS which will show you where you are.

I believe so, but you'll have to go to the Garmin website.http://www.garmin.com/en-US/maps/updates/?zebratwo=CJ&utm;_source=CJ&utm;_medium=Text&utm;_campaign=Map

Yes, like Richard says, plug gps into pc. Download and install "Base Camp" on your pc. Then you can either click the Icon at the top Base Camp tool bar to "send to device", or click on "device" and then "send to device". Some of the maps (City Navigator) have to be unlocked on line. Be careful, gps's will only hold a limited amount of maps. The Garmin Montana 650T will only display maps if there are less than 3,000 downloaded on it. 24K Region Topo maps have thousands of maps on them so you should only select areas you think you will need and download those maps. Too many and the gps will not work. All else fails, call Garmin support. They are pretty helpful.

Yes. It's under Mode > GPS. It can also show you a live compass, if needed.

You should ask Garmin as they would have to have the maps you need to load to use it there.
