    Thank you Joengps for the lovely 1st Mega Earthcache Coin and the personal pathtag. Needless to say the chocolates did not last long either. Sorry for the late response.

    An unsettling mystery

    Wow, these coins that mysteriously appear is something to behold. I am new to this forum and reading through the threads and this one caught my eye. Looks as if it started some time ago. Amazing that it still happens. How can one ever hope for sanity if there are still coins out there not in your collection. It is a situation which will never be remedied.

    Garmin E Trex H - HELP

    in How do I...?

    Posted

    I own a Garmin E Trex H, and I have the cable to it to be able to load geocaches to it. However, I am VERY confused. Can somebody please help me and tell me how to do this?

     

    OR, if there is a better gps that I should invest in, I would like that feedback as well.

     

    Thanks!

     

    I just purchased on of these models as well on sale. If you are a premium member you can create pocket queries to enable you to add multiple entries or use the send to gps function. Unfortunately as I am quickly finding out there is a limit of 1000 waypoints you can add at any one time so I have a number of queries I have depending on the area I am going to. With this Garmin model there is a free application on the GArmin site called basecamp which you can import the gpx files into and drag and drop them directly to your E Trex H. You get the Cache name and creator in the notes field and the coordinates. Unfortunately the hints and log files do not come over to the GPS and as you know there are really no map to speak of. THis is not the unit to go paperless but will do the job if you do not mind printing sheets on occasion. All this being said I only started Geocaching about 2.5 weeks ago but have 103 findss already so it does work.
