+drdick&vick Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I am sure that this has been covered already but I can't seem to find it. I believe that it is possible to upload a bulk GPX file (PQ type) to the Colorado/Oregan and see all the caches that are contained within. Help!! how is it done. Quote Link to comment
+mongoose39uk Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Plug the Colorado, it acts like another drive. Open the folder that says Garmin, in that is a folder cxalled GPX. open that folder and drop you GPX file in there. Job done. Or if you use gsak, download the macro for the Colorado. That will trip the file down so that you only get the last 5 logs. Quote Link to comment
+Gushoneybun Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hi, Connect your Colorado to your PC via a USB cable. Then navigate through 'my computer' into Garmin into GPX and drop your PQ in. Disconnect, start your colorado up, into Geocaches and bingo. Quote Link to comment
+Madyokel Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 However Make sure the *.gpx files don't exceed 2000 caches or the device will ignore them. maximum caches loaded seems to be 3000... 1000 as waypoints and 2000 via gpx. Cheers S Quote Link to comment
+Gralorn Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Now if the PQ has had several new caches added, how does one delete the current GPX from the Oregon enabling a new updated one to be added? Quote Link to comment

Connect your Colorado to your PC via a USB cable. Then navigate through 'my computer' into Garmin into GPX and delete the old PQ that is in there. Then drop in your new PQ disconnect and off you go.

Or just overwrite it! I use the same file name for the geocaches I update regularily and other names for occasional use and things like my home and family addresses etc Quote Link to comment
