+fitbobcat Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Make sure you log in to your geocaching.com account, then find the geocaching page you want by going to hide amd seek a cache. Select a cache. At the top of the page there will be the coords. Welcome to the sport of geocaching. If you have anymore questions just post them in the how do i forum or PM me. Quote Link to comment
GPS-Hermit Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) The above will get you the co-ordinates for a cache. You can also use a map program to get co-ordinates for places you might want to locate one and then go out there and check it out. Each map program will have its own feature on how to get the co-ordinates, you'll have to read a little. On Google Maps just place your mouse on a spot on the map and right click, then choose "whats here" and look for the co-ords in the search bar! The format must be converted. Google Frizzy Calc! Many web sites have co-ords and in many formats so you got some learning to do. Good Luck! Edited May 9, 2013 by GPS-Hermit Quote Link to comment
