State series and the Weekend Explorer 3D series products are compatible with the Triton 500.

We offer a bundle package that includes the Triton 500, TOPO! State of your choice, and a free 1GB SD card.

Exclusive VantagePoint software enables easy management of maps, user generated content, updates and upgrades on your PC. You can view saved routes and tracks, customize them for future trips, or create new ones.

Rugged and waterproof, the Triton 500 is built to withstand intense use, accidental impact and immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes (IPX-7). The advanced features are also easy to use. View the elevation profile for the trail ahead (or any route) or even the track you just traveled. See the precise time of sunrise/sunset any day of the year. Get a calculation of the best hunting and fishing time. And much more.

The Magellan Triton 500 GPS is designed for precision navigation, offering the fastest GPS positioning acquisition in the industry with the SiRFstarIII™ chipset.
