Where am I? GPS-ready!

 I took this summer off from excavating, but checking out sites is still on my to-do list. I am now part of a group of volunteers that monitor archaeological sites to make sure they are protected With this new task before me, I am now tooling up for more fieldwork. That means more work on the blog, too!


In the new year, using GPS units will become the norm. To help, I purchased a Garmin Etrx to aid with mapping (mapping being one pof my specialties in the field). The Etrex 10 is the unit I purchased. It is easy to use; I will do more testing in the new year as the weather improves - we've gotten a ton of snow in Buffalo so venturing into the woods has been a challenge. In the new year, expect more tool histories and product experiments, which includes a new Ariens snow blower I purchased as Buffalo snowstorms are quite a thing to manage.

Happy New Year to everyone!
