Even in heavy cover and deep canyons, the Garmin GPSMAP 78s Navigation Device will maintain its GPS location. You can count on this Garmin GPS, regardless if you’re deep in the woods or near tall buildings and trees, to help you find your way. Uploading additional maps is easy with the wide array of detailed marine, topographic and road maps which Garmin has made available on microSD. Simply plug in Garmin BlueChart g2 preloaded cards for a day on the water or Garmin City Navigator NT map data for making your way by road. Don’t worry about the microSD card getting wet. The card slot is located inside of the waterproof battery compartment. This GPS also supports BirdsEye Satellite Imagery (subscription required).
