I have a ETREX GPS,they go for about $100.I can't down load maps to it,but there aren't many for Utah anyway.I have never needed a map anyway.What you have is a way to mark a waypoint,place where you want to return to,there is a GoTo function,that takes you back in a straight line,and a Trackback function,that takes you back on the same track that you went the first time (this works good going back over the same place when you were trolling,or returning to the dock after dark).The main thing about them is practice,practice.The GoTo function takes you in a straight line,so if you have to go around any thing,its best to use Trackback.Confusing?Yes,but its a nice tool
