+Cachin' Kidlets Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Ever since the new maps started... (last summer), I haven't been able to access them. We are going to be doing some travelling next month, and we'd like to hit some caches along the way. But alas, I can't find the state maps to show me which caches are close to where we are going to be. I go to "Hide and Seek a Cache." Then, I click on the state. But a map doesn't appear. Rather a list of the newest caches comes up. There is not a link to "map" on the top of the page. The only link there is for a "new search" or for the consecutive pages of caches in the state. Please help! Me and You CJAM Quote Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Personally, I like the new maps a whole lot better for trip planning, because of the amount of detail they show. But to see the old style maps, just click on your state's home page from the menu at the top right of the main Geocaching.com homepage. There, you'll find a link to the old state map. And/or just bookmark the map(s) you want. The URL for Michigan's map, for example, is http://www.geocaching.com/map/MI.asp ; you would just need to substitute another state's postal abbreviation to pull up its map. Quote Link to comment
+Imajika Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 I don't know if it's okay to mention other geocaching web sites but here is one I found that actually just leads back to this site. You can go to http://www.brillig.com/geocaching/ And then pick "find a map". It will bring up a list of maps for each state and several different countries with pins at each cache site. When you click on a pin, it leads you back to the cache info at this site. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment
+BigBirdNL Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I use CacheMaps to do this. First get the caches of the area you are going to in a LOC or GPX file, load them into CacheMaps, Select a new AreaMap for them and off you go. A lot (50) of online mapping available for the caches too. Quote Link to comment
+Team DaSH Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 (edited) You can also open any cache page in the state you want to view, and click on the view map link on the page. It looks like this (for AZ of course): In Arizona, United States [view map] Edited January 31, 2004 by Team DaSH Quote Link to comment
