New cache notification

[+3Hs]

Is there a way to automatically notify you of any new caches in your area? The only way I know how is to run a PQ every now and then for caches placed in the last week.

 

Thank you

If you sign in on www.geocaching.com goto profile then under search options I think that how you do it.

When you view your profile page (http://www.geocaching.com/my), on the right side of the page under "Premium features" there is a link to "Set Up Notifications".

 

You have to create a notification for each cache type; I don't see any way to be notified if a new cache of any type is created.

To add to what JJnTJ said, you will want to select "Publish Listing" for each cache type you want to monitor. This will give you the notification when new caches of that type go live.

Got it all set up. Thanks everyone.

This option needs to be redesigned... kinda silly to have to create a notification for EACH type of cache

well, it does make sense if you consider that different cache types have different log types. but yeah i agree, there's much better ways this whole thing could be set up.
