+lacazg Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I am going on a hike this summer from Steven's Pass to Snoqualmie Pass on the Pacific Crest Trail. I am having trouble finding caches along the trail. I know there is a PCT bookmark list but it was difficult for me to determine which caches were in this section. (I have dial up, so it takes awhile to map each cache.) I would appreciate any advice on how to determine which caches are on this section of the PCT. Quote Link to comment

+lacazg Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 Sorry if I was not so clear. I meant that I am having difficulty finding the listings for caches. Quote Link to comment
jholly Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Sorry if I was not so clear. I meant that I am having difficulty finding the listings for caches. Option 1:Well then, figure out some co-ordinates along the trail and generate some pq's and refine the list. Option 2:The new caches along a route probably won't work, so I would drop back and see if I could generate a .kml from google earth. Far as I know that is still a valid input for caches along a route and generate a pq from that. Jim Quote Link to comment
+lacazg Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 Thanks, I will try the google earth option. I haven't tried that yet. Quote Link to comment
+The Jester Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Or try a PQ centered at 47 33.0 121 12.0 with a range of 16 miles. Load the 134 caches returned into one of the mapping programs (I have both NG Topo! and MapSource with NW Trails) and look at which caches are along the trail. Quote Link to comment
