Using the Foretrex 101 with a  paper map increases the navigation power of each.  To 

use a map in conjunction with the Foretrex 101, you must select the position format, map 
datum, map units, and north reference (set in the Set Heading Page) to match the map.  The 
Foretrex 101 supports both the UTM/UPS and  latitude/longitude grids, which defi ne posi-
tion location for the entire globe.  For more information about using paper maps with your 
Garmin unit, refer to “Using a Garmin GPS with Paper Land Maps”, available for download  
at http://www.garmin.com/manuals/UsingaGarmtinGPSwithPaperLandMaps_Manual.pdf.

The default position format (and the one most commonly used) for the Foretrex 101 is 

latitude and longitude in degrees and minutes ( hdddº mm.mmm’).  Choose from 11 other 
position formats or choose the ‘USER’ position format to approximate custom-designed 
grids.  For more information on grids and datum, visit the National Imagery and Mapping 
Agency at http://www.nima.mil.
