This Garmin Rino GPS is a new discovery for me today, and would be perfect for geocaching in groups where you are apt to split up and get separated. From what they say it’s about like having a Etrex Legend and a walkie talkie rolled into one.

I have the Etrex Legend and I could see how being able to talk to my geocaching partners would be a plus. They say the radio has a range of 2 to 5 miles depending on which frequencies you are using. We are usually within 2 miles of each other.

The Rino part of it’s name stands for Radio Integreated Navigation for the Outdoors. Some folks are really sharp forming acronym product names.

OutdoorBasics.com has the Garmin Rino but with a little different database. There are always some small differences in loaded features to keep you on your toes when you shop.
