+TexasGreg Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 We have several trips planned where there are multiple lab caches in a given area. Rather than make redundant trips across the city to log all the finds, is there an app or process to combine the Lab cache coordinates so you can map an efficient route to cover the areas one time and get all of the Lab caches? We did the GeoWoodstock 17 runs in Ft. Worth last year and it required entering and reentering several busy sections of town as we completed one Lab series and moved to the next one. Would really appreciate someone's help in looking at options to streamline this process. Would rather spend my time finding and logging Lab caches than running around the city, revisiting the same areas over and over . . . . . Quote Link to comment

+K13 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 The 'planner' of our group gets the coords of each stop in the Adventures and puts them as waypoints into a gpx file. That will allow the navigator of the crew to follow those waypoints to each of the various Adventure stops and caches on our list for the day. The note on the waypoint tells us which Adventure this one fills. Quote Link to comment
