The newest update to the geocaching app appears to have disabled the "countdown" feature as you approach a cache while looking at the map. You can click off and back onto a cache repeatedly to get the distance, but it's no longer automatic. I can only get the countdown to happen if I'm using the compass feature within a particular cache (but then you don't see the map), or if I ask it to navigate to a specific waypoint (again, accessed by going directly into an individual cache). Am I missing something? Is there a toggle where I can ask it to show me the distance in real time? This is quite debilitating and annoying!

There are two awesome underwater caches in Hawaii that we found out about last week. Snorkle equipment required, each about 1/2 mi offshore. My brother lives on that beach, but we only had time to find one (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=d668481c-a59a-404d-9550-b9c0eb6130fc) before heading to the airport. The other is close nearby. Caches are Nalgenes attached to chain attached to cinderblocks; both 5/5. I'd "favorite" this one, but I'm not a premium member! :-)
