If you want to go with a hand-held GPS unit I recommend the Garmin eTrex line. I have an eTrex Vista HCx that I have used all over the world including boating on Winni and snowmobiling in the arctic. It cost about $200 but there are cheaper units that have less features or are black and white instead of color.

The maps supplied with the units are pretty basic but you can download and install very detailed maps.
