Garmin 62s advice please.


Recommended Posts

Try going to Geocaches. Select Show Found>[select geocache]>Log Attempt->Unattempted. This should put the cache back on the Unfound List

 

My first thought while waiting for a train was to try deleting the "geocache_visits.txt" from the garmin directory, but I suspect that the unit would use a deeper file to keep track of such things.

Indeed. The geocache_visits.txt file is ONLY a log where your F/DNF and comments are appended line by line. The unit does nothing more than append log data to that file. It never looks at it for content.

 

Moving a 'found' to 'unattempted' should work, but the OP needs to be aware that the log that was originally created in the geocache_visits.txt file from the original find will remain, and will appear (but can be deleted) if the field notes are uploaded to gc.com.
