nuvi 3450 loading geocaches on


Recommended Posts

You can, but there are "problems". You are limited in the amount of favorites on the device and when you want to get rid of them to update, you need to delete one by one or delete them all. Custom POIs with a GSAk macro is a better choice and you then can have all of the cache information available. They do not work great for finding a cache, though, as the software is not really designed around that sort of thing. Create for routing to the parking location.

Great thanks. Yes just for seeing caches whilst driving is what I want. I use a handheld for actually finding the cache.

 

I use a GSAK macro to export caches as POIs onto a microSD card that I insert into my 2595LMT.

 

Works great for navigating to caches, or near caches when the Garmin lady says "Navigate off road".

 

Thanks.

Actually you can bulk select which favourites to delete on the later nuvis so you're not limited to deleting all or one at a time

 

But it is no use when deleting hundreds of them and wanting to leave your personal waypoints on the unit.

 

With custom POIs, you can delete or replace files and only those are affected. The same holds for geocaches on a handheld. On all Garmins waypoint management is poor.
