Japan maps

[Hitz]

New to geocaching, have a Garmin Legend HCx. Any recommendations on where I can find Okinawa/Japan maps to start the adventures?

Welcome to the forums. Sorry, I can't help you with maps for Japan myself, but did you realise that there's now a new regional Groundspeak forum for Asia? Someone there may be able to help.

Here's one to get you started:http://rwsmaps.griffel.se/

Scroll down until you get to the Japan map.

 

Do you have a Japanese model GPS or other?

 

UUD makes a routeable/25K TOPO for non-Japanese models

Gamin makes City Navigator V9 and TOPO 10M, but you will only want to install these on a Japanese model.

Thank you, I was not aware of the regional Groundspeak forum, I'll be headed there shortly! Have a good day.

Thanks for the advice and help. No, my Garmin is an American model. I'll give the maps a try and hopefully be out this weekend.
