How to.....on a Garmin Dakota

[+Funk to Funky]

Hi, I've recently purchased a Garmin Dakota 10 GPS which seems pretty good for the price, however I just can't see how to delete the geocaches that I have downloaded onto it (the ones I've done). Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

If you are marking them as 'found' as you find them, then you can remove them by deleting the field_notes.txt file (or something equally obvious, I forget the correct name.

 

This should remove them for you.

 

Is there any reason you actually want to delete them though?

I only want to delete them so that I use less space on the GPS, that's all really, plus if I've done them then I don't really need them on there any more (just in the same way you'd remove a waypoint that you no longer need). So just to remove the unnecessary clutter.

You need to remove the GPX file that is associated with the cache(s).

So you just treat it as any other device with removable storage? Open it up and remove the appropriate file. Makes sense.

Thanks

The geocache_visits.txt file resides in the \Garmin directory while all your GPX files are in the \Garmin\GPX directory
