The Garmin Foretrex 401 is a bit unusual. This wrist-mounted unit isn’t a full-fledged sportswatch, nor does it have the feature set found in some of the nicer handheld GPS receivers. It’s probably best suited for folks wanting to minimize the weight of backcountry gear and have the unit conveniently available.
