+LeoGeo Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 (edited) Suppose I've registered my home coordinates in Buenos Aires with geocaching.com, and I can easily click and find the nearest geocaches to my home. But often I spend the summer with Aunt Hortense in Milwaukee, and often my business travel takes me to a particular hotel in Shanghai, and so forth, and I would like to easily find caches near those coords as well. It would be nice to have, on the "geocaching.com/my" page, in addition to the "caches near my home coords," a place to click for "caches near Aunt Hortense, " "caches near Ultrabank of Shanghai Office," etc., so I don't have to look up and re-enter Hortense's latitude and longitude each time. (Note: in real life I don't have an aunt in Milwaukee, nor do I get to travel to Shanghai on business, nor live in Buenos Aires, sad to say. But I do have alternative places other than "home" where I cache frequently.) Edited July 6, 2005 by LeoGeo Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Create a pocket query for the new coordinates. Then when you want to see the caches just preview the query. Another reason to increase the number of queries from 20. Link to comment
+Team Perks Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Oooh, I love getting to use this quote!! Pocket Queries? Pocket queries pocket queries. If pocket queries are pocket queried, your pocket queries will pocket query your pocket query. Pocket query. I keep a few queries saved and ready to run for those times when I visit frequent out-of-town locations. Link to comment
+ibycus Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Or try this one: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.asp...n=-114.0000&f=1 where you replace lat= and lon= for the lat and lons of your 'home coordinates', then add it to your favorites. Link to comment
