Features

• Explore the Terrain - The GPSMAP 62stc comes preloaded with European Topo maps.
• Get Your Bearings - GPSMAP 62stc has a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still without holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude and you can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.

So now your friends can also enjoy your favourite hike or cache — simply press 'send' to transfer your information to similar units and let the games begin.
• Document Your Journey - With GPSMAP 62STc's built-in 5 mpx autofocus camera, you'll be able to capture the highlights of your outings. Each photo is automatically geotagged with the location of where it was taken, allowing you – or those you share your photos with – to easily navigate back to that spot in the future.
• Keep Your Fix - With its quad helix antenna and high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled GPS receiver and HotFix satellite prediction, GPSMAP 62STc locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear — whether you’re in deep woods or near tall buildings and trees, you can count on GPSMAP 62STc to help you find your way when you need it the most.
• Add Maps - Adding more maps is easy with Garmin's wide array of detailed topographic, marine and road maps. With 4.3 GB of onboard memory, GPSMAP 62STc lets you conveniently download maps and hit the trail, plug in BlueChart g2 pre-loaded cards for a great day on the water or City Navigator NT map data for turn-by-turn routing on roads. GPSMAP 62STc also supports BirdsEye satellite imagery (subscription required) that lets you download satellite images to your device and integrate them with your maps. In addition, the 62STc is compatible with Custom Maps, free software that transforms paper and electronic maps into downloadable maps for your device.
• Get Connected - You've been busy exploring and now you want to store and analyse your activities.
