In the orienteering class I took at the Library last fall with the local search and rescue representative conducting the class, he had us in SW Wyoming set to NAD 27 CONUS datum as that is the age of the maps here the BLM and Sweetwater County uses. Also northing and easting will get search and rescue out to you faster. A different world indeed.
Best,

Pele,
Go to Main Menu, Setup, Units and set your GPS for Datum WGS 84, Statute Miles. If you are corresponding to a US Geological Survey 7.5 topo, you might want your position format as hddd�mm'ss.s".
Hope this helps, Dave

Hello to the List,
I know some of you use the etrex GPS (Garmin). I would like to know how to configure it for the western USA (California, Arizona, Nevada).
Which geodesic system should I use to have correct gps coordinates in the USA ?
Thanks in advance,
Pierre-Marie PELE www.meteor-center.com
