you mean load the cache into the nuvi? i just load the cache through geocaching.com transfer thingie and it seems to work well most of the time...usually a parking lot along the way somewhere if there isnt one listed on the cache description.

I just bought TOPO and put it on my eTrex Venture HC...you guys were right, great purchase. Jumped around a bit at first but great for seeing which side of the hill is best to climb and which side of the river the cache is on. I use my nuvi to get me to the parking area of caches and then let the Venture take over from there. Its worked great so far.

how is the accuracy of TOPO for geocaching...lots of reviews have said the scale is terrible for hiking/caching, but I mean I think I need something better than the base map....suggestions?

well I have a nuvi 200 also which I use mostly to get to parking for the caches (and general city navigation) but wanted something specifically for geocaching/hiking. i was looking to see how TOPO measures up out in the wild...

I have a Garmin eTrex Venture HC and obviously the base map is a bit minimal. I want something to show a bit more (streams, rivers, possibly a few trails) and thought about TOPO 2008 but so many bad reviews online. The NG TOPO! maps looked good but I dont think the can be downloaded to the GPS...any suggestions as to what map is good for more detail (and hopefully not outrageously priced) and one that can be loaded up to GPS?
