How do I download a couple of waypoints

How do I download a couple of waypoints without having to do a pocket query or manually inputting them? (Garmin 60 CSx)

How few is a "couple"??

 

Pocket Queries are best if you are interested in getting all of the cache listing details. However, you can also do that by downloading each caches .GPX file directly from its listing page - kind of a pain if you are doing more than 5 or 6.

 

You can also download up to 20 caches at a time from a search page by clicking the boxes next to them - however, you only get a .LOC file which basically just has the name and coordinates.

You can also use the "Send to GPS" feature for individual caches which requires installing the Garmin Communicator Plugin (link)

Assuming (of course) that they have a Garmin unit that works with the plug-in.

If you can get those 'couple' to appear on the same search page then you can download a LOC file with those coordinates. Then EasyGPS or any other program can put them on your GPS.

I was wanting to add about 12 waypoints (caches) that I have already found. I went to a state park today to find hideouts for new ones and needed to load the old caches so I could maintain the 528' distance. Thanks - CachinSpree

Just do a coordinate search centered near the middle of the area. Then from search results page, check the boxes to the right of each cache you want to download. Finally click on the download button near the bottom of the search results page.
