Hi there,

I'm aware of the dedicated garmin GPS units (etrex10-20-30-35 and edge510-520-820) but has anyone tried to navigate with a preloaded GPS watch? I was thinking something from the Garmin Fenix range. Is it too small of a screen and too cumbersome to navigate with? I am going to be doing the GDMBR next summer and am curious about anyone's experience with said unit. I'll likely make the a better decision after studying the ACA maps.

pro's- Long battery life, use outside of bikepacking, Super portable,

cons - Tiny screen, pricey unit, troublesome to use (id imagine)

Please share your thoughts?

Cheers,

Glen.
