Last year Minnesota geocachers, MNGCA, helped to clean up a state park as part of the national CITO event. This year we are cleaning up a state/city run trail for the same event. We have a monthly CITO cache and have many active CITO cachers up here. There has been many positive responses from park administrators and dept. managers that we've contacted so far. This is really a great way to get geocaching noticed in a very positive way.

Do you mean the 60C manual? If you found the 60CS manual, please share the link. RM I'm sorry, I meant that I found the manual for the 60c.

Thanks for the answer and the link to the thread. I just found the 60cs manual online and saw that it does it too. Thanks for your help!

I have been looking online for a few hours now and have not been able to figure out if the new Garmin 60cs does auto re-routing like my Garmin V does. Does anyone know if, while enroute, you go off the "assigned" route, the gpsr will automatically caculate a new route for you to take w/o having to press any buttons? The Garmin V does this beautifully and I would be hard pressed to give up this feature. I have the Map Source city select software that works well. Thanks for any help out there.

I was in Utah last month looking for a cache when I came upon what looked to me like a benchmark. I didn't write down the numbers or anything. It was out in the middle of the foothills about 40 miles south of Salt Lake City. I tried to look it up on the website using the cache's coordinates to find the closest benchmarks but it said that the closest one was 2 miles away. So, I guess I found one without looking and without really knowing what it was. Is there other "benchmarks" out there that have never been documented? Obviously I know very little on the subject.

On the question of how to place a cache with good coordinates. I've been advised and have done this two times, with success. I have my GPS running from the time I leave the car, pick a spot to hide cache, then log the coords with the push of a button. I then walk away 30 or 40 feet, walk back to the site, record the coords with the push of a button. I do this 7 or 8 times. I go home and average out the last 3 numbers in the coordinates, using them as the final coordinates. Works for me!
