  1. I have a Garmin Venture CX. My gps is full and won't allow me to enter any new waypoints. I'd like to delete a large number of the ones I already have loaded (especially from other states I don't plan on visiting for awhile), however, the Garmin instruction book only details how to delete the waypoints one at a time. This is time consuming and I'm wondering: 1) Is there a way to delete more than one way point at a time, like when you delete multiple pics from a digital camera? 2) Is there a waypoint managing software program that can go in and clear these out? or 3) I have a SD Card installed, which I think only stores maps for me (though I don't have any installed). Can it be used to store additional waypoints so I don't need to delete as many? Thanks for your help.
  2. This weekend I pulled the old bonehead move of putting my GPS unit in my jeans pocket next to my keys and I ended up w/ a small dime-sized area of the screen scratched all to hell. Obviously, I'm in need of a screen protector. I've just ordered one to protect myself against future mishaps. My question is - are there any methods of filling/clearing the scratches so they're not noticable? I've seen ads on tv for substances that are supposed to clear scratches off of eyeglasses, and they sell that stuff that's supposed to take scratches off of cd's. Are any of these able to remove the scratches from a gps screen? Thanks for your help!
  3. I'm just going off of Google Maps for now, so I don't have an exact measurement, but it appears that I'll be right at about 500 feet for the first stage where the seeker would gather information from a sign in front of a historical location. The cache itself will be further away.
  4. I'd like to bring people to a great historical site in Chicago w/ a multi, but it looks like the starting point for the cache will be right at the cusp of the distance it should be from another cache. The final hiding spot for the cache will be a safe distance away. Does the cache saturation rule apply to the first, last, or all stages of a multi? Thanks.
  5. Hi... I'll be in Saginaw, MI for the holiday and I'm hoping to get a little caching in while I'm there. Any suggestions for "must finds" while I'm in the area? Thanks, Mike
  6. I'm actually trying to bring people to a really cool historical site in Chicago. It's the house Carl Sandberg lived in when he wrote his famous poem, "Chicago", which coined the term "City of Big Shoulders." The idea is to bring people to the house, read the historical information on a sign, and then find the cache nearby. I'm going to look for another option. The mailbox just doesn't seem like a good idea.
  7. Seems like it's a pretty grey area, which for me means that it's probably best to avoid this sort of cache. Thanks for all of your help... I'll look for an alternative place to hide this one.
  8. I'm working on placing my first cache (a micro) and the best option I've found in the area I'd like to hide it is by magnetically attaching it underneath one of those big blue corner mailboxes. I've found caches hidden underneath the larger green satellite mailboxes ( where mail from the smaller boxes is placed by carriers for a larger pickup) but I don't know if this green mailbox hide was legal in the first place. Any of you ever hide or seek a cache under a blue mailbox? Would this be kosher? Thanks for the help!
