Anndean Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I am not sure what happened, but I can't seem to find the online map that shows the geocaches. I did a search for my area in geocaching.com and it gave me a list of caches nearby. When I selected the map, the map I get is different than I am used to and it will not zoom in or out. Did something get changed? Quote

+PlaidPirate Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Or click on the View maps in Google maps (beta) right above that. Quote

Anndean Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 I am not a premium member as yet just started geocaching. I know I got to a map with the geocaches w/o being a premium member. Quote
+Markwell Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) geocaching.com/map/getmap.aspx?lat=X&lon=Y Where X=Latitude in decimal degrees and Y=Longitude in decimal degrees OR... Search based on proximity from this page and click the cool MapIt icon in the upper right hand corner: No premium membership necessary - just checked it out with SemperFiWags' account.

+Markwell Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) Also found out that you don't even have to be logged in. Search from nearest page, click the map it and you've got a static map that shows the area (no pan and zoom), but go to Google Maps (Beta) and you get a zoomable, panable map of caches complete with links.

+imfrog2002 Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Pretty much what Markwell said, but if you aren't premium, it's just there. Get premium and it's a WHOLE lot better. Quote
