It's a snap. Set your gps to show closest then navigate to the park. As you find a cache just mark it found and navigate to the next etc. Pretty soon you'll have them all...

I'm not familiar with the etrex legend H, but I'll bet you they're all there, but not showing up. My guess is that it only shows the closest 50. Try searching for one out of range by name and I'll bet it's there. Ron...

The best online manual you can have is here: http://garminoregon.wikispaces.com/

You must connect it to your computer, navigate to the GPX folder and drag the individual files to the trash. In the case of pocket queries, it's necessary to replace the entire PQ with an updated version.

My suggestion is to try a couple out and see which one appeals to you. I have a GPSMAP 60 CSx, a Garmin Oregon 550t, a Garmin Quest II and a nuvi 265wt. They all have their place. I love the 550t for geocaching, The 60CSx is better for hiking and mapping. The nuvi is pretty hard to beat for driving and the Quest II just goes along for the ride. Were I limited to only one it would be the Oregon 550t hands down. I can't comment on the Delorme, never used one...

I've never had a problem with mine. I do recalibrate after changing batteries (I use eneloops and love um!), but sometimes I forget and it still works great. 10 times better than my Colorado 400t compass.

No suggestion on the MicroSD, but I'd highly recommend Eneloop batteries. I use them on in my Oregon 550t and GPSMAP 60CSx. Excellent batteries...

My guess would be NO! Why not see if the batteries float first. If they don't then you have part of your answer! Floating the batteries proves nothing. With enough positive buoyancy attached (the GPS device), you can float a cinder block (the batteries). The 60csx, much like DeLorme's GPSrs, appears to have just barely enough buoyancy to stay afloat with the least-dense batteries possible installed. Salt or fresh water? Just be safe and don't drop it in the drink in the first place...

My guess would be NO! Why not see if the batteries float first. If they don't then you have part of your answer!

5 to 20 feet is well within the normal range. You have to also take into consideration the coordinates as obtained by the cache hider. Don't forget those birds are a long ways off and those signals have to travel through all sorts of obstructions such as clouds, dust, bushes etc. My rule of thumb is when I get within 20 to 30 feet I quit looking at the GPS and concentrate on finding the cache...

Your best option is to upgrade your membership to Premium. That way you can take full advantage of your GPSr with pocket queries and other goodies. If you plan on continuing geocaching it's an investment you won't regret...

The short answer is "yes". If using street maps your geocaches will not only show up but it will tell you on what side of the street you can expect to find it. Then it's up to you...

Yes you can with the magic of GSAK. You need to select 'Filter' then the 'Other' tab then uncheck all of the directions you don't need, then click 'Go' at the bottom. Filtering is your friend! Even better than that is to use the Polygon tool (in GSAK) to define your search area. I use it all the time.

How about BaseCamp...

I have a 550t and not a 450t so I really can't say for sure, but I'd venture to say that's not normal for a factory sealed unit. Is this a new unit? It sounds like there may be a screen protector installed.

I'd suggest rebuilding the almanac and turning off power saving if it's on. Then try again and see if the accuracy improves. Might not make any difference, but it's worth a try. I got my accuracy down to 9 feet (in a clear unobstructed area) just by following that procedure...

My suggestion would be to find a geocaching group in your area. It's amazing how much you can learn by caching with a group. Plan to attend an event and get to know people with like interests...

I own a Garmin 60CSx and a Garmin Oregon 550t, and they both maintain good locks on the satellites when I keep them in my coat pocket or inside my jacket, even in the woods. On the other hand, after an incident a couple of weeks ago, I will never again stuff a GPS unit into an outside pocket and scramble around looking for a cache. My 550t fell out while I was leaning over, and it wound up buried in more than a foot of snow. I thought I'd lost it until spring before my caching partner spotted it after about an hour of searching for it. To add insult to injury, we never did find the cache we were looking for. --Larry I had a similar problem with my 550t. It fell out of my shirt pocket while I was searching for a cache in the bushes. I did manage to find my 550t after about 45 minutes of searching and didn't find the cache until he next day. Since then I have learned to attach my GPSr to a lanyard around my neck. Better safe than sorry. Both my 550t and my 60CSx work great when in a pocket or backpack, by the way!

Garmin 550t = 5000 geocaches. Now go get um all....

Mr. 007s gave you the answer, buy my suggestion would be to navigate here as well: http://gsak.net/board/

I take a slightly different approach. I only use my 60CSx on my bike and use the 550t for the majority of my geocaching. I only load a PQ of the route I intend to follow on my 60CSx and therefore don't have that problem. You might try that approach. If you're using GSAK it's a snap and only takes a couple of minutes to change data.

Sounds like a software problem. The Colorado 400t had a similar problem with one of their software updates and it was later corrected. Have you tried an earlier version of the software to see how it responds?

Sun spots....

Sure, just hook it up to your computer, navigate to the GPX folder and delete the caches you want to get rid of. If you have a Mac don't forget to empty the trash. That's all there is to it...

Can't say for sure, but if it's like the 265wt all you have to do is drag the gpx files to the GPX folder and they'll show up next time you start your Nuvi.
