Caches along a specific route

[+geocooking]

I remember reading along time ago about a program that can identify caches along a specific route. For example, I am going on a road trip from Chicago to New Mexico. I know what roads to take but I would like to map out the caches along these roads before I go. Does anyone know how this is done or remember reading this post in the past.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Software like GPSBabel will do it, but you're likely to find the 'caches along a route' pocket query to be much more satisfying for a trip that long. Look for it in your pocket query options page.

Here is a very good explanation with pictures to describe how to accomplish this with Mapsource and GSAK. Very easy and quick.

Premium members have an option under the pocket queries to generate this info, using google maps. It works pretty well. I used it on trips about 700 miles.
