Here's my eTrex 20 review... http://gpstracklog.com/2011/10/garmin-etrex-20-review.html Be aware that once you arrive there, you'll need to leave any GPS out under open sky, preferably motionless, for half an hour or so for it to lock onto satellites in the new location and fully download satellite almanac data.

The Organisers provide the GPs Co-ordinates for the route we will be following. The GPS is really just to make sure that we don't go off the track and that we are headed in the correct 'way point' direction. Will a this GPS Etrex 10 / 20 or 30 work in East Africa? Hello Rich,

Will a this GPS Etrex 10 / 20 or 30 work in East Africa?

But if you are going to want to transfer them to or from the GPS, I'd recommend a model with a USB interface instead of serial. Yes, almost any handheld GPS will offer multiple formats.
