swatmama67

My husband is a police officer and serves on the SWAT team. When we made up our gamer ids years ago he was swatcop67 and dubbed me swatmama67. The 67 comes from his id at work. It kind of stuck, and now our kids have followed suit- swatboy and swatgirl...

Don't know of you have visited yet but Dinosaur State Park in Glen Rose has pretty good hiking trails and several geocaches. My family enjoys hiking here. Sometimes can be a little crowded- especially in the river area- but we don't usually run into that many people on the trails. And, as a bonus, at the end of a hot day the river crossing at the trail head sure does cool off the toes!!

I can see why that's not clear. Yes, I have a pn-20. But it doesn't show the trails on the maps. Maybe there is someway to download the maps to that? In fact, that's exactly what i'd like- trails on my gps. I also have a tomtom that we use as a backup, of course that's really not that helpful on the trail at all.

I'm not exactly sure how to ask this question without sounding like a whiner. What I'm wondering is if there is a way to overlap the map from geocaching.com with caches marked with a trail map, like those from a state park etc. The idea here is that we have 2 young children, and sometimes we end up on the wrong trail. This is especially hard when there are several hiking trails. So, for example, if there is a cache on the orange trail, we might think it's on the blue trail just because it's hard to guess comparing the different maps. Then we end up hiking double the miles. Maybe this is a map reading problem.... It would also be helpful if there were gps locations listed on the state park/trail maps. So, any help would be appreciated. And to complicate matters, I'm not very software savvy- well, i haven't ever tried it... Thanks, Laura

Suddenly I can't send cache info to my gps. I've been doing this for months now with no problems, but today- no luck. It brings up that little checklist box, but never checks anything off. This process usually goes so quickly but now nothing. I uninstalled the plug-in and re installed the plug-in from DeLorme, but did not fix problem. Any ideas?
