  1. All sorted. Thnx for all the help.
  2. Great, thanks very much. Have downloaded just trying to figure out how to get them on the etrex as I don't have mapsource on this little netbook, have it at home but not here...
  3. My wife & I have found ourselves in PA (Tioga county) at short notice for the funeral of my wifes sister. Being as we live in New Zealand it was a rush trip with no planning. I haven't had time to research some maps for my etrex vista & was hoping someome could point me in the direction of some free road maps of the area including the Elmira/Corning, NY area as well. Any tips would be greatfully received..

    Geocrashing

    Ouch! that had to hurt.. Hope you mend quickly & can get back into geocaching soon. Maybe you can pick up a cheap gps on www.trademe.co.nz to help get started again.
  5. Why not buy some ammo? Then you get a "free" cache container. Which reminds me... honey, I need to get some more ammo....
  6. Good to hear you enjoyed your stay. Hope you can visit again soon some day. There are plenty of caches to find still.
  7. I duct taped my etrex to the hood of my John Deere lawnmower & it told me after 1 & 3/4 hours I had travelled 8.9kms.
  8. Why? As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains unchanged. And it is in that twilight that we must be most aware of the change in the air - however slight; lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. William O.

  10. Thank you all for your input, it's most appreciated. As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains unchanged.

  11. Her husband is on active service is the middle east. She's posted this question elsewhere & I was wondering if you good people would have some suggestions. quote:Originally posted by Mrs. GunnFixr:[QB]I need help picking out a GPS reciever for GF. He asked me to go to the store and get the best one they had in stock. They had a couple of different best ones in stock and I don't know which one to get. I have kinda decided on the Magellan Platinum because it has a compass on it also. however, any input is welcome since the sales lady knew even less than I did. I know that there is another brand out there i think its called Garmin (?). Can anybody tell me how these two units compare and if $300.00 really gets me the best? From what I could gather, I need to get one with military mapping because that's what they teach them to use. I also need to know where I can get a downloadable map of Kuwait and Iraq that he can use. Asking me to buy a GPS is like asking him to buy dogfood, and he knows nothing about dogfood. Please advise.
