Your Sportrak will work. It was known for the "boomerang effect" where it would send you well past the cache, then point back the other way. If you come to a stop periodically as you approach the cache you can

reduce this problem.

 

Oregon is a great unit. It will certainly be an improvement over the Sportrak

Welcome to the wild and wacky world of Geocaching!

 

I hope you get many FTF's and not too many DNF's

 

I think there's a glossary around somewhere... heh.

welcome to the game er addiction.

 

Ref the gpsR...read up on the different sites and here in the forums. You will find lots of advice and even more "opinions" as every cacher owns the best unit on the market no matter who they are and what they own..!! Oregon is a good unit and some cachers I know use it and love it

Congrat's on the first find. We managed to get out and find 7 today with one DNF. Had to sneak in a few caches before the snow storm. Welcome to the obsession.
