Apisphere Geomate.jr

 

Apisphere's Geomate.jr lets you explore the world of geocaching on the cheap.

Very affordable. Preloaded database of geocaches for all 50 states. Easy operation.

Small LCD makes icons difficult to see. No power-save mode. Geocaches newer than six months not included.

The Geomate.jr sits in a class of its own as a child-friendly and easy-to-use handheld, geocaching device.
