phoenixfour Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 At some point on the site I came across a map that had little numbered balloons that marked each of the Cache's in my area. You could zoom in on them etc. but now I cannot remember how to get to that map. Can anyone clue me in? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 click on the map on any cache page. This will take you to the area cache page. Quote Link to comment
phoenixfour Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 Whenever I click on the map on a cache page it takes me to MapQuest. The map I am looking for (Unless I dreamed it LOL!) gave me the locations of 20 or so random caches in my area and I could scroll through multiple pages and it would give a little green balloon with a number in it marking the cache on the map. I could click on the balloon and get the coordinates etc. Does any of this sound familiar or am I on something? Quote Link to comment

The maps you refer to are the "new" Google maps. For some reason, we're back to the old maps. Quote Link to comment

I noticed I can click on the google map on a cache page, but it will only let me see that one cache, not a bunch like the other map did. But, Thank you for confirming that i'm not (completely) crazy!! Quote Link to comment
+IV_Warrior Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Hey, I've found the answer. The Google maps are disabled, while they make changes so the complainers can choose to just see the old maps. Those of us who liked the Google maps are stuck with the old maps until the ability to choose your map is implemented. Link to relevant post Quote Link to comment
+Team Cotati Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 click on the map on any cache page. This will take you to the area cache page. That's odd, when I do that I get a new window with a mapquest map. Quote Link to comment
