Downloading caches to Garmin Oregon 650

[+Mama<3Bear]

I have searched and read quite a few posts but still have a question. If I am only a basic member, am I able to download detailed information about caches? (From what I have read, I think I would be able to but can only download one cache at a time, vs a Premium member, who can set up Pocket Queries and download much more at a single time) Or, is it that if I am a basic member, I cannot download detailed info about the cache at all?

 

Thanks!

Basic Members

 

Basic Members can download geocache information in the form of LOC files. This file type contains only general information: the geocache listing title, GC Code, and coordinates.

 

Premium Members

 

Premium Members can download geocache information in the form of GPX files. This file type contains much of the listing information: the geocache title, description, public additional waypoints (such as parking coordinates), hints, and the most recent logs.

 

If you have a new GPS you may be able to get a free 30 day trial

 

If you do try it DELETE all files loaded as a Basic Member, as a lot of GPS units will default all Premium Member files to basic if there are any Basic Member files on the unit.
