Geo Map

[chadchapman]

I am new to caching so bear with me. I once saw a map of caches that looked like a google earth map and would show all the local caches in the area of the map. Is that somewhere on this site or possibly another?

 

Thanks!

Google Earth cache view

 

Click the link and follow the directions.. it will download a file called GeocachingNetworkKML.kml you open google earth and then using the file menu, select open, and point to that file. It will display all the caches located in the area showing on your screen.

chadchapman,

 

Are you asking about maps on the website? By clicking on 'satellite' on the following map, you can get a google earth view with the cache icons listed:

 

http://www.geocaching.com/map/

 

You can enter a specific address to search for in the box on the top right. You can also get to this map after doing a search from the search page and clicking on 'map it' at the top right of the page.

If you click on a cache in your area and then click on "Geocaching.com Google Map", that will bring up all the caches available, and will also indicate which ones you have found and not found.

You may have to be a "premium member" to get "geocaching.com google maps". It is a great program for planning your "cache runs" any where in the world. Good luck
