I am using pocket queries for gsak and GPXviewer for the ppc, however, I was specifically hoping for this filter on the google map search page because of the visual element it adds to my mental planning. I've decided that the best approach for me is NOT to go for caches that are 'near' each other, because sometimes linear distance is meaningless in San Diego. I've got to contrend with a uniquely shaped set of bays, major highways, geographical impasses, and things of that sort. There are places where telling my reciever to go to the next cache would point me a hundred yards across a river that I would have to go many miles to get to, and things of that sort, so seeing the google map search is awesome. It does mussle up the picture though to have those disabled caches (thanks for the proper term) in the mix, and when I print it black and white, and loose the inteligence of those icons, it's less than handy.
I think the best method for me isnt going to be distance, it's going to be arbitrary geographical grouping that I pick, for example, do all the ones on the peninsula, then everything west of Nimitz, then everything west of 5, south of 8 and north of downtown, take the downtown next, etc.... to work out my 'cleared' area. When I look at the google search page, I should see empty areas of map, and if a new one pops up there, it goes to the top of my to do list to maintain my cleared area. Having these disabled caches there sucks because I most likely cant complete them, yet I dont want to ignore them on an ignore list, in hopes that they may become active again.
Anyway, so many of my plans and hopes hinge on a silly longing for a simple filter button that just isnt there.... how sad is that?
