- Topo Maps For Garmin Vista Hcx Manual
I have a Gamin Vista HCx and understand that it stores about 20 tracks in internal memory. Additional tracks overwrite the original 20, I think. Here's my problem: I will have a topo map of Spain in the micro SD slot. After 20 tracks, can I remove the topo micro SD, put in a blank micro SD and save my accumulated tracks? I have a new eTrex Vista HCx, and had no trouble updating the firmware to 3.10, installing a 4GB memory card, and loading OR & WA Topo 24 maps from the Topo 24 West DVD. But after I downloaded the Seattle CityXplorer from Garmin, the topos were gone.

The Vista HCx has the best readable screen (alongside with other color etrex h series) of all Garmin units, when viewed under direct sunlight. The backlight is the brightest of any garmin outdoor unit. This makes the etrex hcx series the best series to be able to read the screen while cycling or mtbiking.

Topo Maps For Garmin Etrex
Lightweight and compact - ideal for backpacking.
battery life is the best I have seen on any unit. I own 2 other GPS units.
Versatile, excellent for hiking, geocaching, wilderness navigation. Not ideal for car, but adequate and the windshield mount performs very well.
Super easy computer interface using the Garmin Mapsource software. I also have all the Southeast region topos loaded on a micro SD. The 1GB card is half full. So far in 6 months usage software and GPS has worked flawlessly.

Cons:
Rubber armor delaminates which is a real pain.
Not as rugged as my Magellan Explorist 210 or my Garmin Geko 101.
My other units have survived several bumps and scrapes, but the first time I dropped the Garmin Vista HCx, the screen cracked.
Overall, still the best value for the avid backpacker, or geocacher. A very powerful unit.
