Garmin eTrex Venture Cx Handheld Navigator

Pack more detail into your adventure with the eTrex Venture Cx. This popular handheld navigator has a bright color screen and microSD card slot for expandable memory, and it can route you on roads or off, for wherever your travels take you.

Expand Your Memory
Storing data is easier than ever with Venture Cx's microSD card slot, which is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you don't have to worry about getting it wet. You can use optional preloaded microSD cards with MapSource® data for your land and sea excursions. Just insert a MapSource card with detailed street maps, and Venture Cx provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination.

Take It Anywhere
Like the rest of the eTrex series, the rugged Venture Cx is WAAS-compatible and waterproof, so it can withstand the elements or an accidental dunk in water.
