Cache Map!!

[Seeker BP]

Is it just me, or did the cache map dissapear!! Maybe I am just not seeing it!!

[+The Navigatorz]

I couldn't find it either.

Me neither! From the thread discussing the new cache location page display, it appears that the only person who couldn’t find the maps was also called “Geocacher” on their avatar. I wonder if the maps are now a “members only” premium feature. If so - I will renew my membership - I need those maps!

 

I have never in my life learned anything from any man who agreed with me.

I take that back... I can still get the state maps from individual cache pages. But there does not seem to be a link from page displaying all cache locations of a state.

The state maps are still there. I just think the link from the 'search page' is gone. If you go to the main gc.com page and select your state from the list at right, you can still get to the state cache map.

Ummm, can we get it back on the search page?

In another thread Jeremy mentions the cache maps will be back... in 2 weeks! This is not good! I leave Sunday to spend several weeks in the mountains of Colorado- I was in the process of planning my routes using the maps!! I could see where caches were clustered, so I travel that route instead of another. What am I supposed to do now? Try and look up every zip code in colorado to try to figure out where the caches are clustered?! Or maybe look at all 813 and figure out where they are located on my own map? I would enter the co-ordinates of where I am going and look that way- but that defeats the purpose of planning a trip around caches! Augh this is no good!

If you read welch's post (2 above yours), you would know that the map is still there and how to get to it.

 

But just to help you a little, HERE IT IS.

oh geez... I completely missed that <doh>

 

Please pick your excuse of choice:

1. Its Monday!

2. I was having a blonde moment.

3. Uh oh, run away! Run away!

That is not what I said. What I did say was that the new map system would be up and running within 2 weeks. The current maps are still there and available from searching by state on the front page of the site, or clicking on the map link on any cache page.

 

If you really dig those maps I suggest making them into a bookmark.

My sincere apologies. I should not have relied on my memory about what you said in the other thread. My memory is on the fritz - blame it on too many days with too little sleep, or way too many hours in with the cadavers (or maybe both?)

 

I have now made them into a bookmark, thanks!

Oh and BTW: IMHO the new format is really user-friendly- I really like that if I leave the ones I have found in the listings they appear with a slightly darker color

 

Why take life so seriously...it's not like you're going to get out of it alive!
