Apologies for the probably over-posted topic, but I'd like any updated info that might be out there. I'm looking for a GPS unit that would be most helpful for trail projects and monitoring tasks rather than something that is more useful for hikers. Frankly, I'm not even sure there would be a difference--I just don't know much about what's out there. I've never owned a GPS, but volunteers are being asked to provide GPS locations for monitoring of rare plants and boundary issues more and more--so it looks like I'm going to have to move into the new century and get one of these puppies.
So what features to look for and what are useless or should be avoided would be helpful, as well as any first hand field experience you've had with reasonably up to date units.
Finally, just to make it even more complicated, I prefer to use a Mac for any downloading or creating maps.
Thanks for your input,
