I believe this will operate on the same principle as my 60C. For geocaching mode, load the caches as waypoints with the treasure chest icon. If you download the .loc file from geocaching and simply load it as a waypoint, it should do this automatically.

 

When you search for geocaches, the treasure chest icon is what tells the unit that the waypoint is a cache.

Only if you save your POI as a waypoint with the closed treasurechest icon before you select it and navigate to it.

All my caches are in a GPX file; all have the closed treasure chest assigned. If I load them as individual waypoints then I can see them in the Geocaching screen. If I load them as custom POIs they don't show up.

Is there a way to do this using the custom POIs instead of regular waypoints?

The bottom line is that, to be able to use the unit's geocaching features, caches must be loaded as waypoints. If they are loaded as custom POIs, they won't show up in the list of geocaches and you won't be able to use the geocaching features.
