CoCoNutz Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'm trying to solve a puzzle on a multi-stage cache and it requires that I "project" a waypoint, and I have no idea how to do this. The puzzle is similar to this ( actual details changes so as not to spoil it for others ). The next stage is located exactly 1/2 mile due south ( True ) from N 43 12.456 W 72 22.696 I'm using a Garmin Venture Help, Please Quote Link to comment
+the hermit crabs Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Do you have the manual for your Venture? Setting the heading to True (vs. magnetic) is described on page 43; projecting a waypoint is described on page 26. Quote Link to comment
+Sputnik 57 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 On my Garmin 60C, it's MARK->MENU->Project Waypoint. Since the distance is in miles, you just enter .5 and 180° for south. For what its worth, if you need to project in other units, there is a hidded menu under the "mi" indicator. If you cursor over it and hit ENTR, you can change units to mi, ft, yd, km, m and nm (miles, feet, yards, kilometers, meters or nautical miles). There is also the ability to change from degrees to other types of units, IIRC. Quote Link to comment
+kingquad Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 if I remember good on my legend I had to go on find/waypoint/the waypoint you want/then click on the sub menu on the top right and there will be an option which will ask you to project waypoint. Quote Link to comment
