The constant upgrades made to cellphones and smartphones have altered them from mere phones to a jack-of-all-trades piece of equipment that has found a way to make itself a part of our everyday lives. Even outdoorsmen can take advantage of the leaps of technology that we now find in our phones. However, even the most modern phones have lackluster GPS capabilities and are still often reliant on cellular networks to get the full set of features used to navigate. The new Bushnell BackTrack Mini GPS solves that problem and gives you a reliable form of accurate navigation that you can take with you on nearly any off-grid adventure without the need for a cellular network to operate.

“Using GPS satellite technology, the BackTrack Mini tells outdoorsmen and women where they are and where they’re going without the need for cellular network service or downloaded map data. Also critical, the BackTrack Mini has a 34+ hour (GPS run time) rechargeable battery life, ensuring users can navigate without relying on a typical smartphone’s short-lived battery in harsh conditions.
The BackTrack Mini also features a built-in compass with temperature, time, barometric pressure and elevation. This can be critical information for backcountry hunters navigating the mountains as well as for long-range precision rifle shooters dialing in their rifles. The unit also uses this environmental data to calculate a forecast of best times of the day to hunt and fish.
With a 2.25″ display and easy, 4-button operation, the BackTrack Mini GPS is intuitive and simple to use (even with gloves on). Plus, it includes features which allow a user to backtrack to their basecamp as well as set up, save and share waypoints via Bluetooth with Bushnell Connect.”
In addition to the features listed above, the BackTrack Mini GPS comes along with a durable exoskeleton that can withstand bumps and scratches that you might encounter on your adventures. The BackTrack Mini also includes a tether and carabiner so you don’t have to constantly have it in a pocket or in your hand. You can further the power of the mini GPS unit by pairing it with your smartphone to make use of neat features like trail sharing, and breadcrumbs for friends so that you can share your path with your off-grid adventuring buddies. The BackTrack Mini GPS from Bushnell is currently available for $99.99
