  1. I am having the same problem creating routes
  2. Is there anyone else having an issue when you go to your pocket queries and click on map this location it does not show up for what you want to map like the area you have for a query?
  3. Have not done Harney Peak as of yet but here is a trail system info that you might be interested in, Black Hills National Forest Here is the main page of the national forest here in the hills, National Forest There are many trails out here to pick and chose from and it can get a little overwhelming! Wind Cave National Park has some awsome trails if you want to see wildlife but you need to watch out for the buffalo and rattle snakes there especially this time of year. The Devils Bathtub is a neat and fairly easy trail that crosses the creek several times that a 9 year old would get a kick out of Devils Bath Tub I have a couple other trails posted to this web site Trimble outdoors just do a search Hope this helps a little.
  4. Creating a pocket querry will let you find caches by difficulty and terrain
  5. The Centennial trail would be a great primitive hike. It is about 110 miles up through the black hills and you can camp at most of the TH's without paying anything. We packed starting at Pactola Reservoir and went north to Bear Butte with the scouts. That was about half the trail, I have always wanted to do the other half here someday. You could call the Black Hills National Forest to find out info on back country camping and trails at 1-605-673-2251. They would probably send you some info also.
  6. Guess it was not to hard of a fix, thanks Groundspeak for your hard work on the geocaching pages!
  7. What happened to geocaching web site? I was looking at some caches and went back to profile page and got and internal error message?

    PQ's

    I could edit all other PQ's but this certain one. I deleted it, deleted it again, Finally! I just put in from my zip code (not home coords) and am able to edit now? Not sure if it was because I was trying to put in just my home state or what the problem was? I got it edited for now to what will keep me busy for awhile.

    PQ's

    Trying to edit PQ's and already have one set up that has run a few times each week, but now want to expand finds and miles. When I go to edit this I go back to preview after I have edited it and it is the same as I started. Is there a bug or something happening with the pq's today or is anyone else having this issue? Not a big deal as long as it gives me my original amount each week.
  10. Add me to the list, I just went ahead and looded all my caches one at a time from the pages I was going after. It took a little longer but I was able to get out and do some caching.
  11. Not recieving my PQ's either! I tried generating a couple new ones and only one came through but still waiting for the other. Hope this gets caught up soon.
  12. Hello from the southern black hills SD
  13. Hello, I just recieved a note that all gpa and walk in areas with the GF&P's have been baned for SD and was wandering what brought this on? I have a cache that I had requested permission from someone in the Yankton area and do not remember his name but had gotten permission at Highland Landing in the SE corner of SD. This is an excellent spot for mushroom hunting and sight seeing along the National Missouri River. It is also a hunting area. There are people building houses right next door, I mean right across the gravel road, you can't get any closer (500ft) to the east of the hunting area. If a bullet would happen to stray to the east from this area it would either hit a home or worse yet someone that lives there! There is also a boat landing here accesing the river so it is not like only hunters access this area, people come here to float down to Clay County Park and to go to Elk Point or Yankton or Sioux City on the river I have seen as many as 20 cars at a guess in this area using the hunting area for mushroom hunting, sight seeing, just a hike etc. I am really kind of upset about this whole thing. I know it is not your falt, I thought about archiving this but thought I would put my 2 sense in before and see what happens.
  14. I can't do the link thing so here is the names of the sources I have found for gps downloads: http://www.huts.org/hut_details/index.html http://www.travelbygps.com/index.php http://backpacker.trimbleoutdoors.com/backpacker/home.aspx here is a free download that works for downloading after you save the file to your computer, http://www.easygps.com/default.asp Hope this helps
  15. I noticed allot of people are getting onto there accounts page now, I am still not able to do this. I can get to the main page and go into where I can find caches through hide and seek and search for caches on the right hand side of the main page and go into all the other links but the my account page? It says that it has encountered an error when requesting this page.

  17. I am a lurker, I like to lurk around to see what I can learn on this forum. I find a lot of humor and needed info for me that are posted on here, what a great bunch of people! Most of the posts are interesting and lots of fun to read. There are also some posts that annoy me also but you have to take the good with the bad. I have learned more on here about geocacheing and about how people go about playing the game and what they expect and what they do not like. Well you can't please everyone all the time! Thanks for the place to come and learn and chukle!
  18. Here is a good place to start, http://shop.Groundspeak.com/productList.cfm?categoryID=4 just another $4.25 more.
  19. while working with a friend, he told me that beings I have a gps there is this game called geocaching that you use a gps to find treasures some where hidden. I looked it up on the internet and punched in the coords to one and went to find it and was hooked! GREAT FUN! Do not have the time to do it all the time. Wish I could find a way to paid to geocache I would never complain! LOL
  20. Try this out link out, http://www.geocachingadmin.com/maps/terra.php?
  21. Cache alone? Like others have said, down time for myself. Alot of the time it is just me and my dog. He really likes to run and crash through the bush! I have taken others with to show what it is all about, but most of the time alone. I do let someone know where I am going just in case.
