Downloading Cache info to Garmin Etrex


Recommended Posts

I have a Garmin Etrex 20x - a good piece of kit, I think. However, downloading cache info from Geocaching.com, one cache at a time, is slow, laborious and painfully boring. Can anyone tell me if I can do this in a bulk? ie select all the caches I want, then download them on a single click of an icon, or something similar. Thanks.

As a Premium Member you can use Pocket Queries and download upto 1,000 caches per PQ.

You can make a bookmark list of caches, and then run a pq of that bookmark list.

I'm having the same problem. I'm not a premium member and am also using a Mac. Have you found a solution?

The only solution is to become a Premium Member again. Downloading multiple caches at a time is one of the key benefits of a Premium Membership. As a Basic Member, you'll have to download each cache individually to your GPSr.
