Garmin GPSMAP 276Cx everglow

Garmin guidance experts have created the GPSMAP 276cx all-terrain GPS navigator to keep you informed, regardless of your location. Whether you’re hiking the Trail, fishing for dinner or just looking for the next highway exit, this all-weather Navigator puts a wide range of data at your fingertips. You can clearly see your countless maps on the 5 ” display and count on the waterproof case to overcome tough conditions. It also gives you power options so you can keep it conveniently charged. The flexible GPSMAP 276cx is an update to the classic Garmin GPSMAP 276c navigator, but with many new offerings. It features a sturdy frame with easy to use buttons and a 5 ” color display that displays well in bright sunlight. The included motorized mount (with AMP holes) allows you to keep the Navigator right where you want, even on a boat. With 8 gigabytes of internal memory, you won’t have to worry about running out of space for multiple maps, and you can expand that capacity with optional microSD™ memory cards.Garmin GPSMAP 276CxOne of its improvements includes satellite tracking for GPS and GLONASS, to improve tracking performance in heavy coverage. A barometric altimeter and a 3-axis compass help you stay on course. And it offers new wireless connectivity features-Read more about them below.
Basemap included, plus support for more
The Garmin GPSMAP 276Cx is preloaded with world basemap with shaded relief. It also includes a free 1-year BirdsEye satellite imagery subscription, offering an aerial photographic perspective of your environment. The navigator supports a wide selection of complementary maps, including Garmin, turn-by-turn, custom, and marine topographic maps, as well as raster and vector maps. You can plan your trips on different types of terrain and choose your maps accordingly, with the certainty that the built-in basemap will cover you. The Garmin GPSMAP 276Cx is ANT + compatible, so you can combine it with fitness accessories and external sensors to monitor statistics such as ambient temperature while in the wild. Connect it to your computer via Wi-Fi® and join other outdoor enthusiasts in the Garmin Connect online community; you can upload your adventures and keep track of important details of your excursion, or simply receive feedback and ideas for future adventures.
