+darus67 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 I'd like the ability to store multiple sets of "Home Coordinates" that I could click to quickly search for neaby caches. For example, I work 30 miles away from home, so I'd lke to quickly be able to search for caches near work. We have a cabin on the lake 100 miles from home, we have relatives in the next state that we visit several times a year. It would be nifty if I could store coords for all of these locations in a "Favorite Coordinates" list, or something like that. On a somewhat related note, why isn't the "search near home coordinates" link on the search page in addition to (or instead of) the My Account page?? Link to comment
+nfa Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 They have a similar function on the new Waymarking.com page, and I have entered coordinates for my home, my parents house, the place in Maine we go in the summer, my sister's place in NYC, etc. nfa-jamie Link to comment
+lillaurel Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Oooh, that would be handy. i live in CT, but seem to do geocaching with my bf, who lives in NY. It'd be nice to look at either point. Link to comment
+ODragon Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 SOmeone else can Markwell it but it's been requested many, many times. Link to comment
+KJ&MShelly Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 you can always create pocket queries with the coordinates you want. you don't have to run the query to get the results, just preview them online. Link to comment
+darus67 Posted September 7, 2005 Author Share Posted September 7, 2005 Someone else can Markwell it but it's been requested many, many times. D'Oh! And so it has. Just not in the last 30 days. This newbie failed to notice that searches default to limiting to the past 30 days. My apologies to this deceased equine for inflicting further flogging upon it. Link to comment
Jeremy Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 We added this feature to the Waymarking site and we'll add this to the geocaching.com site as well. I don't have a definite date for it however. Link to comment

+Markwell Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 As an interim, just do a search from each home coordinate set, and bookmark the result. Link to comment
