Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Garmin eTrex Legend HCx GPS uses a high-sensitivity WAAS-enabled receiver to provide navigation data even if you're in thick trees, on a cliff-lined trail, or near tall downtown buildings. When other GPS units fall flat on their face due to terrain, the eTrex Legend HCx GPS still lets you map 50 routes and up to 1000 individual waypoints. Garmin made this GPS microSD-card compatible, so you can easily add more maps whenever you travel to a new region. Once you get back to civilization, just plug this 5.5oz GPS unit into your computer's USB port to store data for future trips and current bragging rights."
