  1. JHolly, Thanks for the smack upside the head. You were absolutley right. I re-read your previous post and followed the directions verbatim...and what do you know? There are the ones that I couldn't find. I knew it would be something dumb (note the screen name). I hope others got some entertainment out of the whole ordeal. Thanks again.
  2. I think your not understanding it right. Did you try Find->Waypoints->Menu->Find by Name? Do the caches show up now? Sorry I can't make this less confusing. I live in Belfair (roughly Seattle area) and I can load caches south along the way to Portland. The farthest cache that I can get to load is exactly 110.3 miles away from my home coordinates. Everything closer shows up without issue. Anything farther does not load onto the GPS. The website says "Geocache XXX00X.gpx saved successfully" (no error message on computer or GPS) but it doesn't show up on the GPS. I've found over 500 caches, I'm not a total rookie, but my farthest cache away from home has been 113 miles away and I've never run into this before. I am sure it's something dumb but I can't figure it out.
  3. Maybe I'm not explaining right. When you open up a cache page and the button near the top/center of the page that says "Send to My GPS"...I can't get the GPS to take coordinates from my computer on anything over a certain distance from my home. This seems to be at about 120 miles away. It will take them on caches nearer than that though.
  4. I have a Garmin etrex venture that I have been using for about a year. I am admittedly a bit technology challenged but I haven't had this problem before. I am planning a trip next weekend about 200 miles from home and I can't load any caches on to the GPSR that are more than say 120 miles away from home. It will load all day long caches that are around here though. What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help.
  5. travisl If you are going to hit the one cache on Hurd rd. you may has well get the other large one that is on the way. "Micros are boring" isn't more than 5 minutes off of the gravel road. I may be biased on this because it is mine but you'll have to drive past it to get to "NOPC enduro trail" anyway.
  6. I tried it with both a non-premium sock puppet account and my account. no problems. It was just the work computer. I can get it at home. Thanks, though. My bad.
  7. anyone else having trouble opening the link to the list???
