[QUOTE="cohunter14, post: 1142325, member: 55580"] One cheap (free) thing you could do is just download the Trimble GPS Hunt app on your smartphone. It will show you exactly where you are on a topo map, which would give you the altitude. The cool thing about the app is that it works even if you don't have cell service. Just make sure you view the map of the area where you are hunting before you lose service and it will have it pre-loaded onto your phone. Heck of a lot cheaper than buying a GPS! The other thing to keep in mind is that you can probably pre-load the altitude into the wind meter ahead of time, so you don't have to do it while prepping for a shot. Assuming you are not varying by thousands of feet in a given day, that should work just fine. [/QUOTE]
