+Where's the treasure Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hello We have bookmarked a few caches in a particular area that we want to retrieve tomorrow, but cannot work out how to get the bookmarked caches onto our GPS device. Do we have to put them on individually? (please no!) or is there some other way? Thanks Quote Link to comment
+TeamRabbitRun Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 You're a Premium Member with access to Pocket Queries. Go to the Bookmark List. There's an option there to run a PocketQuery from your list. Then, process the PQ as normal. If you haven't played with PQ's yet (I see you're fairly new to this), they'll email you a GPX file (Geocaches) and a WPT file (Waypoints) to manually put on your GPSr. Hit the Help file and read up on Pocket Queries! You can do a lot with them. Welcome to the obsession, ...Bill Quote Link to comment

I don't end up with PQ's that big; I'd bet most people don't. The OP said he was dealing with "a few", so.... I use the email option, and I know others don't. Glad you pointed out that there's more than one way to get the data, I suppose. Quote Link to comment
