  1. I heard of Geocaching on the TV show-Worlds best places to find cash (Get it? ) and treasure. I quickly thought "Awesome". I immediatly googled Geocaching, found Geocaching.com .
  2. Good idea! I was thinking of putting a card in about the history.. Separating it completly escaped me though! Thanks! Phil
  3. Hi all, Dad and I are thinking of doing our first cache this saturday. As a trade for items in a cache I was thinking of putting in some of my collection from the old Paulenskill railroad line. Having been buried for atleast 50 yrs, it is VERY rusty and I was wondering what you guys (and gals) think of this? It isn't sharp, just rusty, I was thinking they would make great cache items because of the history they carry. Thanks, sorry for the grammar, ~Phil
  4. Thanks! Dad and I will proably try to start off on a good note with Allamuchy pond and a FTF someplace..You guys rock!
  5. Yes I enter the cords manually-BTW, you anwsered my question!=D! Thanks! Phil

  7. When I punch cords into my etrex vista (Not HCX) I'm not sure how it leads me to the cord location.. it doesn't put me on a map with an arrow, it doesn't do...anything.. .. please help.
  8. Hi all, My dad and I are looking forward to doing our first cache this weekend, what is a good beginners cache in NJ besides a mircro? Thanks! Phil
  9. Hi all, My dad and I just got the Etrex Vista (Norm, not HCX or anything) and the manuel is waayyy to confusing for my limited cranium capacity ( ) so I'm just wondering, how do you type in cordnates and navigate to 'em? Thanks, forgive my stuipidity, ~Phil
  10. I ordered by Etrex Vista for geocaching, but it would be a huge plus if its useable for like, streeet nav. Can it do street nav?
  11. Thanks... Was it important that my Vista have a basemap? (not that it doesn't, at the time I thought you needed maps to GC)
  12. Hello, The Etrex Vista my dad and I recently ordered uses a serial connection cable. Were can you buy Serial-USB adapters? Secondly, will it make a HUGE difference using serial besides USB?
