"The versatility of the Magellan eXplorist XL gives adventure seekers and outdoor sportsmen the convenience and practicality of an eXplorist in a larger form factor. The large color display screen builds on the variety of superior functionality consumers have come to equate with the Magellan eXplorist series."
Some of the Magellan eXplorist's features are:
eXplorist XL Software:
The included Magellan Geocaching Manager software simplifies the fast-growing GPS activity by loading geocaching data directly from the Internet to the Magellan eXplorist XL to eliminate the need to print website information or manually enter GPS coordinates into a receiver.

Customers receive free data management software plus the ability to purchase and install newly released versions of the MapSend line's most popular software applications directly from the DVD. Customers can choose to activate complete applications of MapSend Topo 3D USA, MapSend Topo Canada, and/or MapSend DirectRoute North America with a credit card purchase from the Magellan website and install it using the DVD.
