Built to handle weather and rugged outdoor conditions, the Montana series has been tested to U.S. military standards (MIL-STD-810) for thermal, shock and vibration and is also constructed with an IPX7 rating for water resistance. The series is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack that provides up to 24 hours of life in GPS mode and up to 440 hours in expedition mode. Recharging can be done conveniently through a standard USB-C® cable.

Montana 760i users can also document their journeys with a built-in, 8-megapixel camera. The device automatically geotags photos with coordinates so adventurers can navigate back to their favorite spots later.
Available now, the Montana 710/710i/760i GPS handhelds have suggested retail prices ranging from $919.99 to $1259.99 Canadian.
