I am trying to figure out how to Geocache efficiently. I have an oregon 450t. Currently, I look at the map on Geocaching.com and look at  the area I want go searching for a cache. I create a PQ, and download/extract to my GPS. In the field I can 'search for a geocache' and 'find next closest'. What I would like to do is bring up the map and SEE and icons where the GC's are. Am I missing something? THanks for the help fellow cachers!

Surely you are missing something. Geocaches do show on the map with the Oregon 450t. Check your map settings to see what zoom level user waypoints are displayed. The 450 doesn't have a separate setting for geocaches as the 600 and later does.

I'm checking 'User Waypoints' now. I have it 'off'.  I have the option to change it to 'auto' '5m' '8m' ....'800km'. What would you suggest?

0.5 or 1 mi might be working quite well.
