    why was my garmin venture hc off by about 11 m today, now that i am at home, it seems fine, about 3m,
    i had a hard enough time with the snow, but 11 m seems like way too much digging

    I had the same problem with my Garmin yesterday, but I was having the problem of one time I would be 4m then 20m it was all over... But I was on the skidoo trails near the power lines. That might had been my problem.

    Hey guys I too have had times when things seem a little out to lunch ...One thing I have done in the past is to turn gps off ,wait a couple minutes and then turn it back on to re-acquire a signal or just walk away in one general direction then return to see if you end up in the same postion .Either one often works for me ...keep on caching .... pirat
