Trouble downloading waypoints from Google Eart to Garmin eTrex Legend

[+Hritzy]

Ok...read the manual for the Garmin eTrex Legend and it says very little about how to download the waypoints into the unit.

 

From Google Earth, I have saved a group of caches I want to find in a bookmark. I know how to build pocket queries and bookmarks, but am ready to lose all my hair because I may pull it all out in frustration if I do not figure out how to get them into my Garmin!!!

 

HELP a lady save her hair!!!!

Downloading GPX/LOC Files

As a premium member you can use Pocket Queries to have files of up to 500 caches each emailed to you. Also see Pocket Queries: A Detailed Explanation by Markwell

 

To get the caches from Google Earth into your GPS you'll have to save them in a KML file then load that file into software that supports KML and GPS communications. GPSTrackmaker (freeware) among others will do this.

Thanx for the response! I found it odd my GPS system had no software with it. I didn't consider that, just thought the file went directly into the GPS...but I cannot even see the GPS when I have it plugged to the computer.

THANKS and I will now have some closure! And keep my hair!!!
