+tuckfam4 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Is there any way of adding multiple caches to a garmin? Ive been doing it one by one and it would be a lot easier if I could just add all of them at once. Quote Link to comment

I can fairly quickly load 5000 caches to my Garmin that way. Newer units can hold even more. There is a bit of an extra learning curve beyond the first 1000 caches. Lots of cachers here can help you out if you get stuck. Creating Your First Pocket Query Quote Link to comment

Ive been doing it one by one and it would be a lot easier if I could just add all of them at once. https://www.geocaching.com/pocket/ This tool outputs a GPX file which can be placed in the GPX folder on your Garmin. The GPX file will contain cache details for all the caches that match your query. Pocket queries produce GPX files containing up to 1000 geocaches. If you need more than that you'll need to run multiple pocket queries and upload the GPX file produced by each. Although your device will hold a finite number of caches - ours holds 2000.
