Motorcycle_Mama Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) You can use the "Send to GPS" button on the cache page. OR You can get Pocket Queries emailed to you in GPX format. Then open the GPX file that is attached to the email and load it to the unit with MapSource or EasyGPS as Waypoints. Or You can load the GPX files as Custom POIs using Garmin's POI Loader software. http://www.markwell.us/pq.htm Edited April 19, 2009 by Motorcycle_Mama Quote Link to comment

Motorcycle_Mama Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Start simple, then. Use the first method I listed and load a few that are near to you. Print out the cache pages or write down the information. Get a feel for it before you try to jump all the way in and get overwhelmed. Quote Link to comment

Motorcycle_Mama Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Well, you still have to work at it little. It seems overwhelming at first, but if you just go about it step by step, it won't be too bad. As indicated in your other thread, though, if you are looking for "paperless" caching, there's more work involved in getting them there on that unit. In the Garmin line, only the Colorado, Oregon and maybe the nuvi 5xx support paperless caching in full directly on the unit. With other units, you have to do the work to get them there. Or use a PDA separately in conjunction with the nuvi. Quote Link to comment
