You’ve found another perfect trail to hike, and you can’t wait to get out
there. Or maybe you’re new to hiking or backpacking. You’ve got all the gear
you need – from shoes and hat to water bottles and sunscreen.
But how do you plan your hiking or backpacking trip? Using the Global
Positioning System (GPS) is an excellent way to plan your hike, and lets you
include the exact waypoints you want to be sure to hit along the way. With
Trimble Adventure Planner and Trimble Outdoors, you can enjoy the benefits
of GPS trip planning and navigation without taking anything but your cell
phone* with you. You can save on space and weight, and still enjoy GPS
navigation.
And while you’re out there, you may want to take photos of your experience. Not
to worry…with Trimble Outdoors and a camera phone, you can take
plenty of photos, and share your complete hiking or backpacking trip online at
Trimble Outdoors with your friends and family.
Already have a GPS receiver? You can download your hiking and backpacking trips
that you’ve created, or those you’ve found by searching on Trimble Outdoors, to
your data transfer capable Garmin or Magellan GPS receiver.
Regardless of your level of experience, Trimble Outdoors can help you get more
out of your hiking or backpacking adventure. It will allow you to research,
plan, experience and share all your outdoor hiking or backpacking adventures
across the United States.
Of course, as a member of the Trimble Outdoors community, you can search for
