Garmin has a device for every recreational activity, but doesn’t offer customers a device that promotes versatility in those activities. We found that people who are serious about an outdoor lifestyle love learning new skills, and are always on the move while exploring and seeing new things. So why not offer a device that encompasses the idea of versatility when aiding you and your array of outdoor activities?
