I see you're from the south... I'm guessing you've never noticed the abundance of red train cabooses out there? We only have one up here in MN that I know of, but when I lived in TN, it seemed like every other bar or restaurant in the area had a train caboose in the front yard. Maybe that's why we hardly ever see a caboose attached to an actual running train anymore. But anyhow, I'm rambling... A red caboose hide is usually a magnetic key holder attached somewhere on a caboose. Not in this case ,its takes you to the back of a Cvs drug store,ain't no cabooses back there, I'll try again but sounds like a big cache container. GC272G9

Okay, What the heck is a Red Caboose Hide ?? Didn't find that one today.

Try this e-bay item just what the doctor ordered!! golf ball/ with log and waterproof. http://cgi.ebay.com/Golf-Ball-Cache-Contai...=item335d903cb7

dfx , Thanks again! You have helped me several times with this new gps. I did what you said and by golly I got my caches loaded. New sport for me I learned about it in a magazine called BCM (bus conversion mag) Thought this would be an interesting thing to do as I travel with my converted Silver Eagle Bus.Stop at a new place and go hunting.Want to know this Gps well so as to enjoy the hunt. Kinda like makin sure your rifle is sighted in.

So I do a PQ and use Easygps to try and download the file that was e-mailed to me. Easygps finds the file okay,I set it at 200 finds. It comes up okay I tell it send to gps and thats where it dies, nothing no error messages . If I use the Garmin plugin through Internet Explorer I can load one cache at a time from the geocaching site, so there is communication between the computer and GPS, just having issues with a mass load to oregon 450. Is there a different program to use other than Easygps ? Thanks, I get there eventually

Thanks , Just what the doctor ordered!

Somewhere on one of the forums I read something about a geocaching brochure, that someone carried with them to provide info to those unaware of the sport especially when seeking permission to place a cache.Anyone got an idea where so I can copy it. Thanks

Talk about unwanted attention, a dude or dudette walking into the post office, knapsack on back some electronic device in hand searching for a certain unknown PO box.News at eleven !!!

I just bought a oregon 450. Does anyone know if I purchase the City Navigator NT North America micro sd card, will the unit then do a turn by turn directions, to get to the general area. Expensive sd card if it won't. Is there a book or manual other than the garmin one that perhaps goes into better details on all of the capabilities of this unit.With the city navigator software I would assume I could use it like my car Nuvi. Thanks for any input! New at this sport ( an old fart too need guidance) ED

Of these units what are the pros and cons? Are they all still in production or old models soon to be forgotten if repair is needed. Garmin Extrex Legend Hcx Garmin Extrex Vista Hcx Garmin Gpsmap 60Csx Garmin Oregon 400T In what order would you guys place these units for Geocaching. I am new to this ,travel in a converted Eagle Trailways bus and want to learn this sport. Don't need the gps except to be really good for this have nav. system already in bus. Thanks for any help I am already a Busnut now going to be a cach-nut. It all started with an article in April issue of BCM ( Bus Conversion Magazine ) on Geocaching. Thanks ED
