Montana™ 600
                                 

Take it hiking. Take it hunting. Take it on the water. Montana 600 features a bold 4 in. color touchscreen dual orientation display and supports multiple mapping options like BirdsEye Satellite Imagery, BlueChart® g2 and TOPO U.S. 24K. Montana has key features for the outdoors such as a 3-axis tilt-compensated compass and barometric altimeter. Buy the auto mount and a City Navigator NT® map and it'll give you spoken turn-by-turn driving directions. It's big. It's versatile. It's tough. It earned the name Montana.

Navigate with Ease

Montana 600 has a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still, without holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you even can use it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.

Double Your Power

Plan Your Next Trip

It also can transfer an unlimited amount of satellite images when paired with a BirdsEye Satellite Imagery subscription as well as geotag photos, or associate them with specific waypoints.

  Advanced Shortcut Features

  Whether it’s loading an application, navigating to a waypoint, switching your profile   or customizing specific settings to your needs, advanced shortcuts lets you combine   these functions to create a custom-tailored, streamlined experience. Each Montana   comes with pre-loaded shortcuts – Go Home, Track Log On/Off and Stop Navigation –   to get you started.

  More Dashboards in More Places

  With 1 touch of the power button, you can pull up a multi-orientation dashboard from   anywhere – your map, home screen, compass, trip computer, status page and more –   so you can create more dashboards in more places.

  Fully Customizable Homescreen

  Whether you go somewhere often, continually change settings or create shortcuts,   Montana’s fully customizable home screen allows you to bring up to 16 items from   Where To?," "Setup" and "Shortcuts" to your home screen so you can easily access   them without having to click between screens.

  Reorderable Menu Options

  Reorder any menu however you like with this new feature, which keeps you from   constantly scrolling to the bottom of a long list.

   Smarter Profiles

  Montana’s smarter profiles feature remembers which profile you were using, based   on the mount, so when you’re off-roading or trying to find a bike shop, it will put you   in the right frame of mind so you can get on your way quickly.

  Adaptable Controls

  Don’t like the way something is set up? No worries. With a tap of a button, you can   configure your applications easily and quickly with adaptable controls. Have to mount   on the right handle bar? No problem. Montana can accommodate left- or right-handed   setups based on the screen orientation.
