Garmin montana 650, Great with back roads maps, most of the trail systems in alberta are marked. Like the touch screen, hope that it works as well on the sled as in the sxs

Another one for the GARMIN, But it is the Mapping Software that makes the big difference. Lots of it for the Garmin Units.

My dad and I have been using Garmin Rhino 530hcx's for a few years now, and our buddies have some too. Its super nice to have the 2 way radios and be able to poll the location of other Rhino's.

Garmin Rino 530hcx as well. Others in my group have been getting them too so this is a great way to keep track of each other

I am running the Alberta Back Roads mapping card, also have the one for BC. All the trails, cutlines, OHV use areas are marked for you. Show's lease roads and LSD's.

I had a Garmin 60CX until I smashed it a few weeks ago... excellent unit, but it's been discontinued. I bought the next generation Garmin 62S... I didn't think I'd like it as much as my old one, but now that I'm used to it, I love it. You can load several different maps and toggle between them and you can load Google Earth Satelite imagery onto it... I've been waiting for this for years! I've got it all setup and going hunting in 2 weeks, I can't wait to see how the satelite maps work!

X2 on Alberta Backroad GPS Maps. Shows a lot of detail and a lot more accurate than the stock mapsource data.
