I'd say "Garmin eTrex" or "Garmin Colorado" or "Magellan Explorist". Runs ~8 hours on two AA batteries (just carry a couple of extra AAs in your pack). Rugged, check. Splash-proof, check. Waypoints, check. Heading/bearing indicator, check. Try to look after those brands, and be sure to compare prices and other models. Look at the "GPS reviews" page in the OSM wiki or ask a local dealer. Cheers, -- ---------------------------------- Iván Sánchez Ortega <[email protected]> AAAA: Asociación anti abuso de acrónimos
