| Geocaching Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for gps users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a gps unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache. |

| new gps for car and geocaching
HI- I am replacing an older handheld COBRA unit with a black and white display. It was fun for geocaching, but I'd like to upgrade I want the new one for use in the car....maps are new for me, and also be able to enter coordinates for geocaching. I haven't found reasonably priced models that can do both. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for your time. |

When you say use it in the car, you mean like a big touch screen and auto navigation? or just something you can use occasionally, and non-touch screen is ok? I like the 60csx/76csx/VistaHcX, but I understand for Geocaching the current hotness is the Colorado series, as they allow paperless geocaching. The other units have spaces in notes but not as much info as the Colorado from what I understand. I guess like all things it depends what percentage of time you want to spend using it in the car, or for caching?

Truthfully, I think we'll spend more time using it in the car, but stil need to find (and hide) a few treasures in geocaching. We love to geocache, but we don't really hunt as much as we would like.
