<p> The preloaded U.S. topographic maps, 3D map view and a built-in worldwide basemap with shaded relief give you all the tools for serious climbing or hiking. Map detail includes national, state and local parks and forests, along with terrain contours, elevation information, trails, rivers, lakes and points of interest. In case you&#8217;re wondering how steep that hill really is, the Oregon&#8217;s 3D map view helps you visualize your surroundings&#8211;giving you a better perspective of the elevation.
<p>The Oregon 400t lets you customize five profiles&#8211;automotive, marine, recreation, fitness or geocaching&#8211;making the most beneficial features for each activity the easiest to access through quick shortcuts. The tough, 3-inch color touchscreen display is easy to read even in direct sunlight, and the Oregon&#8217;s easy-to-use interface means you&#8217;ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for information. </p>
<p>It also plays well with others, allowing for wireless exchange of tracks, waypoints and geocaches between other Oregon units and Garmin Colorado models. </p>
<p>This unit has a built-in electronic compass that provides bearing information even while you&#8217;re standing still, and its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. You can even use the altimeter to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. </p>
<p>Conveniently plug in optional preloaded microSD memory cards for all your outdoor activities on land or water. The card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about getting it wet. Just insert an optional Garmin MapSource card with detailed street maps, and the Oregon provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination. And with optional BlueChart g2 Vision maps, you&#8217;ll get everything you need for a great day on the water including depth contours, navaids and harbors. </p>
<p>Garmin&#8217;s HotFix capability automatically calculates and stores satellite locations, greatly reducing satellite acquisition time so that you can turn the unit on and get going. Geocaching is even easier with the Oregon, which quickly downloads online information for every cache, such as location, terrain, difficulty, hints and description, so that you don&#8217;t have to tote printouts with you. </p>

The device lets you customize five profiles&#8211;automotive, marine, recreation, fitness or geocaching&#8211;making the most beneficial features for each activity the easiest to access through quick shortcuts. The tough, 3-inch color touchscreen display is easy to read even in direct sunlight, and the Oregon&#8217;s easy-to-use interface means you&#8217;ll spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time searching for information.
<p>It also plays well with others, allowing for wireless exchange of tracks, waypoints and geocaches between other Oregon units and Garmin Colorado models. </p>
<p>This unit has a built-in electronic compass that provides bearing information even while you&#8217;re standing still, and its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. You can even use the altimeter to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions. </p>
<p>Conveniently plug in optional preloaded microSD memory cards for all your outdoor activities on land or water. The card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about getting it wet. Just insert an optional Garmin MapSource card with detailed street maps, and the Oregon provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination. Add optional topographic maps to take advantage of the Oregon&#8217;s 3D map view which gives you a better perspective of your elevation. And with optional BlueChart g2 Vision maps, you&#8217;ll get everything you need for a great day on the water including depth contours, navaids and harbors. </p>
<p>Garmin&#8217;s HotFix capability automatically calculates and stores satellite locations, greatly reducing satellite acquisition time so that you can turn the unit on and get going. Geocaching is even easier with the Oregon, which quickly downloads online information for every cache, such as location, terrain, difficulty, hints and description, so that you don&#8217;t have to tote printouts with you. </p>
