Installing Geocaches (Drag n Drop)
Users of geocaching.com who are not premium members will have the ‘GPX eXchange File’ button
greyed out. It is recommended that non-premium members use the “Send to GPS” button but it is also
possible to save the geocache as a LOC Waypoint File. However, please note that LOC Waypoint Files
need to go into the Waypoints folder, not the Geocaches folder in the receiver.
Installing Geocaches with Drag ‘n Drop
1. Go to www.geocaching.com on your browser.
2. Use the search tools on geocaching.com to select a geocache to load.
3. Click on the “GPX eXchange File” button.
4. Files are saved to your computer with the filename <GeocacheID>.gpx. The Geocache ID can be
found in the upper right corner of the web page describing the geocache.
5. A “Save File” dialog window will open on your computer. Save the file to your computer. (The
location of where the file is saved will depend on your browser and how you have it set up to save
files.)
6. Turn your receiver on and connect if to your PC with a USB cable.
7. Select “Connect to PC” on your receiver.
(You don’t need to do one geocache at a time as explained above. Continue saving geocache files
until you have all you want for this session.)
This geocache, San Dimas Easy, is one of the
thousands available and is the one used for
this example. This is a good type of
geocache for a beginning ‘treasure hunter’.
Notice that the Difficulty and Terrain ratings
indicate that it is easy to find and not very
rough terrain.
