As amazing and as breathtaking it can be to go off the beaten path in search of an exciting adventure, nothing is as important as getting home safe. And for Tech Thursday we're focusing on a key accessory when you're on the trail: a GPS receiver. The Garmin Foretrex 401 is a wrist-worn hiking GPS, built with features designed to get you home. For starters, it's waterproof, ensuring operation even during inclement weather. It comes with an array of sensors, including ABC (altimeter, barometer, and an electronic compass) data, and it keeps a "breadcrumb" trail of your path so you can easily retrace your steps. The Foretrex 401 is also smart on its own and fully-connected, meaning it's able to track and save your routes and favorite places, and easily share it with your computer or with Garmin's online services, as well as connect with other data devices like a heart rate monitor or cadence sensor. No matter where you end up, see yourself home with the Garmin Foretrex 401, available at the link below.
