Garmin Dakota 20
Outdoor navigation meets touchscreen simplicity in Garmin Dakota 20. This
rugged, palm-sized navigator combines touchscreen navigation, high-sensitivity
GPS with HotFix satellite prediction, barometric altimeter, 3-axis electronic
compass and microSD card slot in one affordable, power-packed punch.
Touch and Go
Garmin Dakota 20 makes outdoor navigation effortless with a tough,
sunlight-readable, 2.6 inch color touchscreen display. The interface is easy to
use, so you’ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for
information. Both durable and waterproof, Garmin Dakota 20 is built to withstand
the elements: bumps, dust, dirt and water are no match for this rugged
navigator.
Get Your Bearings
Garmin Dakota 20 has a built-in 3-axis electronic compass, which shows your
heading even when you’re standing still or not holding the device level. Its
barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise
altitude, and you can even use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which
can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. And with its
high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver with HotFix™ satellite prediction,
Garmin Dakota 20 locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its
GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons.
Find Fun
Get into paperless geocaching with Dakota 20 by quickly downloading up to
2,000 caches, with information such as location, terrain, difficulty, hints and
description — no more paper print outs and manually entered coordinates. Visit
our geocaching pages for more information.
Explore the Terrain
Garmin Dakota 20 comes with built-in worldwide basemap, so you can navigate
anywhere with ease. Adding more maps is easy with Garmin's wide array of
detailed topographic, marine and road maps, available on microSD card.
Share Wirelessly
With Garmin Dakota 20 you can share your waypoints, tracks, routes and
geocaches wirelessly with other compatible Dakota, Foretrex, Oregon and Colorado
users. Now you can send your favorite route or geocache location to a friend
easily. Just touch "send" to transfer your information to similar devices.
