Garmin GPSMAP 60CS
When you love to hike, bike, or just explore the great outdoors in general, having a sense of direction like a drunken pirate who lost his compass is less than ideal. Luckily for us, we have a little thing called GPS, and the best handheld GPS device we’ve seen yet is the GPSMAP 60CS from Garmin ($400). It features a 256-color transreflective TFT, 20 hours of battery life, 56MB of internal memory, an electronic compass, and a barometric altimeter. It’s also waterproof, and is sure to help you locate that chest of buried treasure.
