Thanks for straightforward review. What's the key difference between the Core and Traverse Alpha. My understanding is Core doesn't provide "breadcrumb" GPS functionality? So not a GPS replacement for finding an UTM coordinate?

I picked one of these up earlier this year and love it so far. Glad to hear it survived your testing. I figured your testing/usage would surpass anything if ever put it through.
