+TeamGeoduck Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Just got my Garmin Oregon 600t in the mail today, thanks to a great online deal and my birthday. Anyhoo, loaded up a GPX into the unit, just as I did with my Oregon 450, and the cache list looks fine (a list of caches show with all the details when I search for them), but there are no caches on the map. The map shows the additional waypoints (parking, trail head, etc) but not the caches. I typically search for the next cache using the map instead of the "find nearest cache" button. I tried the removing(delete) the GPX file from the unit, restart the the unit, shut down, and reload the GPX, but still the same result. Am I missing a setting? The Oregon 450 wont show caches after you expand the map over three miles, so I tried that as well. Thought, fixes? Thanks! Quote
+Timpat Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 I don't have an Oregon 600 but other Garmin units I have are able to make User Points and Map Points visible at various zoom levels. Go into Map Setup perhaps and look for these settings. Quote
+TeamGeoduck Posted July 17, 2014 Author Posted July 17, 2014 Great, thanks. I wend to setup map--> Advanced Setup--> Zoom Levels--> Geocaches, and was able to make the change to 3 miles there. Thanks for the inspiration! Quote
insig Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Set it to 500 miles, zoom out all the way, and bask in the glory of all the geocaches! Well, it's what I did at one point anyways... Glad you got it figured out. Edited July 17, 2014 by insig Quote
