Hi, I'm Chrissy, 36 yr old mom from New Port Richey, FL. I starting caching a few months ago and I am having a great time! I can see it really becoming addicting. I've always loved to go hiking, so this fits right in with that. It gives me a little motivation to get my butt up and get a little exercise too! I was first caching on my iPhone, which was good, but it killed my battery. I recently bought a Garmin Oregon 450t and use the iPhone as a back up if I want to see a satellite image. I'm hoping to make some local caching friends to go out with. My husband has a bad back and cannot hike for long My niece likes to go caching with me, but complains if we walk too far and she is a lazy searcher.. giving up too easy! So, if you live in the area, give me a shout!

I figured it out! The PQ that was downloaded was indeed not good.

Hang on... PQ may have been faulty... I managed to get some caches on there... Just not the ones I wanted! The 2nd PQ I ran didn't download correctly. I guess I will try again tomorrow. I give up for the night!

Thanks for the link! Good info, but was geared for Windows, not Mac. I did what it said to do, and it didn't exactly work! The geocaches went into my Found list. When I try to search for one, the Oregon doesn't think that there's any one there... *confused*

Hi, I'm getting a Garmin Oregon 450t delivered to me today. What software do I need to download for MacBook Pro running OS X??? I've seen Basecamp.. and something else... idk. And then I saw something that said you can only download one only if you have another program. So, I'm confused! Can someone help me out please! I would like to run a PQ for the 500 closest caches to my house and transfer it to the Garmin. And, how do I select where it goes, internal memory or microSD card? Thanks! Chrissy
