    There is a tool on project-gc.com which lists the sums of hidden caches per country.

     

    https://project-gc.com/Challenges//22565

     

    There are 12 entries on that list which have no hidden caches:

    But I did report, they were not bothered.

     

    Almost everyone I reported were blocked... and looking for "Team DNF" I can see zero Finds now. Maybe HQ erased all those you refer?!

    How do I download a cache off-line In case I don’t have reception when I go into the mountains

     

    After selecting the cache on the app, you can choose to save it for offline use (Download Offline Data, when selecting the three dots icon on the right of the cache name)... works also for lists and PQs.

    Qual o melhor GPS para geocaching?

    in Portugal

    Posted · Edited by RuideAlmeida

    Boas, sei que já não é uma tema novo por aqui mas gostaria de saber qual é o melhor GPS para geocaching à venda em portugal por um preço acessível. 

     

    Bem-vindo!

    Presumindo que já possua um smartphone... se instalar uma app de geocaching nele, dificilmente encontra um GPS mais fiável.

    Pessoalmente destaco a diferença de tempos na captura de satélites como um ponto positivo do smartphone... não precisamos esperar tempo algum, ao contrário de um GPS comum... que dependendo de um céu muito enevoado, pode falhar totalmente. Com os power-banks atualmente disponíveis, a questão da bateria já não é tão importante como há uns anos, mas a facilidade de podermos usar pilhas AAA num GPS, conta a favor destes... e para além de alguma resistência aos choques e quedas, não me ocorre mais nenhuma vantagem.

    Não obstante o supracitado... penso que consegue comprar um Garmin Dakota20 novo ou usado por um bom preço.

    Is there a GPS that I can download caches without connecting to my laptop?

     

    Using an app on a smartphone, by instance. ;)

    You can also share saved data between some units by Bluetooth.
