By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Now onto some frequently asked questions:
Can I buy more detailed maps from Garmin and load them on this device?
Just for further confirmation: The Garmin provided features/abilities chart on this product page shows that the 20x and 30x allow "ability to add maps" and the 10 does NOT.
As a Kayaker, can I put in my Launch Point a waypoint and use this to return to it?
Absolutely. I would make sure the unit is kept in a dry bag, but it will surely point you in the right direction and get you to within 25 feet of your launch site.
I would like to buy it for leading my hiking outside. I just want it to help me not get lost in woods and guide me on the right trails. Is it okay for that?
It's not going to show the right trails, but it will prevent you from getting lost.
Can I input longitude and latitude?
I need to get coordinates UTM and latitude and longitude. I live in Venezuela. Does this device work for my country? The computer brings up a screen that generates UTM coordinates and lat/log?
Unfortunately, no information is available regarding the UTM coordinates or specific compatibility with Venezuela. It is advisable to contact Garmin directly or consult the product's technical specifications for accurate information regarding coordinate systems and country compatibility.
