Download nztopo onto your phone. Keep the Garmin at home.
My phone is older than my gps!

Seriously though. Upgrade your phone to a water resistant/proof model. Mine is a $300 motorola. works mint

you could try loading updated software onto it Loading site please wait... this has helped fix bug's in garmin GPS's similar to what you describe for me in the past
I use a Garmin 62s, bomb proof. I just lost it in the Kaimanawas, probably gonna go for a walk this weekend to try find it.
I also use a Samsung S8. It's waterproof, love it.
Decided to send my 60csx to tony from kiwigps,reckons he can sort or out .
