Id suggest a garmin with color screen and on-X maps. I have and use an Oregon 550 that ive used for years, i also have a Dakota. The Dakota is smaller and the batteries last longer, but its only in the pack for an emergency if the 550 fails. I also have on-x on my phone, but dont rely on the phone as a GPS. My elk hunting buddy and i have had to pick up our fair share of suckers walking down the road because the battery in their phone died while using it as a GPS. You guys want to keep using them, well i guess my partner and i will keep helping you out.
