  1. I just saw a display M315 for 97.00 at the Goodguys Blossomhill ave. store. I already have one so come and get it while it last...[]
  2. On start up, you can see the which version you have. I believe the v3.15 is worth the time to download and install. Do a search here under 315 updates. Good luck Rusty.
  3. Thats kind of an inside joke ,George. If I hadn't read the new virtual cache on highway 108, I woudn't have known what the heck you were talking about.TIC
  4. Kidding aside, I personally wouldn't invest any time or money on a five or ten dollar cache. My caches are faily remote odds are greater that they may be burned in a brush fire than looted.I'm not going to fireproof them either. If its some morons idea of fun remove them and wait awhile he'll move on or be killed when he decides that doing a jackass video is more fun.... Support PETA: Please Eat Tasty Animals

  6. Hi, Bykenut. Most people I know have a 3.5 mph walk it depends on the length of trail and how many are already there. How many can you plant and maintain. Map it out you'll get a better idea on how they will fit. I'm thinking of making one in the 5-1 range patterned after Ron Streetcars.
  7. I no longer do caches that are to close to homes or near private property. I like the secluded ones best. They're plenty of good ones out there. Personally I shy away from the ones that entrude on people. I,ve seen some stupid placements and they're the ones that don't last...My 2¢..
  8. Comes out to 215 yards.Six out of 8 arrows from my bow hit the target. The Leica lazor range finder showed 217 yards not bad. To me one pace = one yard, been doing it for 25 years and it still works for me today. I'm 6'1" BTW..
  9. Thank God you finaly decided. Now how long did it take you to settle on the Silva Ranger compass.TIC

  11. BUT!! In some areas that should be protected the land managers lea$e to cattlemen at just pennies per acre. Cattle wreak havoc on the land, streams and lakes. Hikers and campers don't bury their body waste. Stained t.paper blowing in the wind. Even the local critters leave trails as they go about their daily lives. My caches will read "tread lightly". Pack trash out please...We can make it known that we as tax payers can make this a sport that cares about the environment.
  12. I hope you don't look like a bear. I heard a story about a guy who rolled his truck off the road. He had a broken leg and as he crawled back up to the road a hunter saw this bearded guy to be a bear and shot him from long distance. The hunter thought he shot a bear until he went to bag his kill. Luckily he only winged him. Since your'e new to this I suggest you stay in town and get a few under your belt before going outdoors. Wear blaze orange and make human noises ie. Boom box or play a bangio while out caching during the open season. Hope this helps.. Support PETA: Please Eat Tasty Animals
  13. Just get the V. What are you waitin for. You found five without one, It should be a cake walk with the Garmin V. My 315 and a ten dollar compass works better than the e-compasses on any of these gps units,( No calib. or batts. needed). Be happy with the V, you'll be wishing you had it sooner..

  16. Street car, I recently found your Pinecrest cache (nicely hidden by the way) on that day (7/17 wed.) the coords were spot on using my mag. 315. I wondered what your gps was. The little yellow one right?
  17. Jenn, what gps are they using and how are the coords set. You found three with the M 315, if so how close were you to the cache each time. Check your gps version you should get v.3.15 if you do'nt already. Always check to see how many sats. are displayed at a given moment. My 315 works on cloudy days and in the woods you have to hold it high above your head for best results. Hope this helps. PS do a search here on the update to v.3.15 topic..Best of luck to you...

  19. Great choice, You may want to check the operating firmware to see if you have the latest ver. 3.15 You can do a search on this subject here for more info. on the v.3.15 update it is worth the time to update it. To find out which version you have you turn on the unit and press enter quickly look at the version on the next page before it swiches to the sat page, it will be breif (read it quick). Have fun..Be safe.
  20. Yeah, Its really bad when you're traveling by car going 65 mph and resetting the GoTo.

  23. I always thought Tonto means dumb xhit and Kimosabe means "knows it all" but really he's just as stupid. Don't mind us we mean well.Welcome NJ_Tonto, Geocaching can be fun and if you go with your cousin or a friend you can see for yourself what to look for in a GPS. I have a Magellan 315 and its been good unit, I wish I would have bought the 330 as it to was also on sale. When you are ready to buy be sure that it is the one you want. Even if you have to save up to get the next one up it will be worth the wait. Although you can always sell the unit and get most of your money back they keep their value fairly well. Best of luck to you and keep safe.... Support PETA: Please Eat Tasty Animals
