Geocaching is a treasure hunting game where you use
a GPS device to search for geocaches—containers that
include a log for you to record your visit. Some geocaches
have trinkets you can take—just follow the “take one,
leave one” rule. To nd out more about geocaching,
visit Geocaching.com.
On the PN-60, a geocache is a special type of waypoint
used for geocaching. The Geocaches Page lets you view
a list of the active geocaches on your PN-60. Geocaches
are active on your PN-60 when you open a waypoint le
that contains geocaches.
Managing Geocache Files
Geocaches are managed using waypoint GPX les;
each le can contain up to 1,500 geocaches and child
waypoints. For more information about GPX les, see
File Management on page 85.
Tip Use Find to quickly locate a geocache in the open waypoint
le. For more information, see The Find Page section starting
on page 44.
Geocache List
The Geocaches Page displays a list of active waypoints
from the GPX le open on your device. The le name
and the number of geocaches and any child waypoints in
the le appear at the top of the page. When you highlight
a waypoint in the list, the Bearing and Distance info elds
display measurements as follows:
From the GPS position when the device has a GPS x.
From the cursor location if you are manually panning
the map.
From the map center if the GPS receiver is turned off.
