Maps for Counties?

[Nickster0000]

Been reading logs and stumbled upon the counties challenges where you have to find a cache in each county. People have said my map for state X is all green. Is there a feature on geocaching.com that allows you to see all the counties you have cached in?

It‘s not on geocaching.com but on project-GC.com. You log in with your geocaching.com nick and password (authenticate), then go for tools-challenge checkers. There you can check whether you completed a challenge or not.

But it would be great to know where the boundery of a county are because I didn't found that info.

You can use one of the geocaching.com maps that shows county boundaries.  If you've opted in to using Google maps, you can opt out using the "Set Map Preferences" button on the map page and switch over to the Leaflet maps, which provide several options with visible county borders.

 

I prefer either Esri World Topo Map or Esri WorldStreetMap when I am working on county challenges, because they actually label the county borders with the county names.  See below for screen shots of my area -- you can see York County, James City County, and Newport News City are all labeled on the map and delineated with dashed lines.

 

But those little dashed lines can be hard to see sometimes, so I also use one of the Open Street Map styles at times (usually default, third image) to make the county borders stand out more - you can see the dashed purple lines.  I'd use OSM more, but they don't label the counties and it can get confusing trying to juggle unlabeled town, county, and state boundaries at some zoom levels.

GSAK's Google Maps are able to show a specific boundary layer:

The website used to have a fairly long list of map options.  They did away with all but three and two of those are nearly indistinguishable.

On the new "Search" map, yes.

 

But all the options described above are still available on the now-classic "Browse" map. Hit the Browse button at the top of the wrong map to get there.
