+pinecone45 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Newby warning! Is there a way to convert a list of geocaches to a .gpx file and download that file (since 'Send to Garmin' doesn't work)? Quote Link to comment

What problem do you have with "Send to Garmin"? Quote Link to comment
+Mineral2 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Send to Garmin works. You may need to install the latest version of Garmin Express. See if yours is out of date. 1 Quote Link to comment
+GeoCycMan Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 OK - Since the limit for PQ is 1000 caches, has anyone SUCCESFULLY downloaded 2 or 3 or 4 PQ to the GPS directory of their Garmin and had them all be visible on the map. I have a Garmin MT 610 running Windows 10 with the ability (in theory anyway) to have 4000 waypoints in the Montana. AND SO TO BE SPECIFIC - I have created the PQ, I have opened them in the Geocaching App and all are visible, I copy them to the GPS directory on the Montana 610 and maybe 1500 of the caches are visible. Suggestions ?? I am not using Garmin Express because I see no value in trying to create a list one cache at a time. Quote Link to comment

How far away are these caches from your current location? You'll only see caches that are within 100 miles in the list of caches, but you should be able to see all of them if you pan the map to the appropriate area. Quote Link to comment

Geocaches have their own limit as they are treated differently from waypoints. + what A-Team said. Hans Quote Link to comment

As other shave indicated, only geocaches within a 100 mile radius of the current location appear in the list, but they all appear on the map, with one caveat: Geocache Filters. Maker very certain you have none set! Detailed info can be found at this Montana wiki. Quote Link to comment
