Yes! great idea, let's bring benchmarking caching to Canada. I know were I can finds three very quickly in Halifax N.S.
Well you can at least add them to Waymarking.com. Click on the link in my sig.
Yes we in Nova Scotia can put our selves on the benchmarking map just like our friends in the south. There a lot of good benchmarking site to choose from.

Google Earth Answer to KML's

Google Earth comments about KML's; Hard to believe only 200 Geocachers used this tool, may be we missed a great teaching opportunity.

"Thank you for writing in. Due to issues that the Google Earth KML feature caused on the website it has been removed. The network KML was implemented before we had a proper online mapping tool for Geocaching.com. Some of the more tenured cachers may recall the old GeoMicro maps that would reload the page every time you panned or zoomed (and how tedious that was). However, the subsequent introduction of full-featured Geocaching.com Google Maps has made the KML link somewhat redundant.
The other reason is that only about 200 users regularly accessed the Google Earth KML, and the performance hit to the site was grossly out of proportion with the return. In other words, it was making the site run quite slowly.
Please keep in mind, however, that you can still use Google Earth to import .GPX files from Pocket Queries. In fact, the accuracy will be much better since the network KML has always randomized locations to some extent anyway.
I hope this helps explain.
Best Regards,
Allison Urban"
