How do I delete geocaches from my Garmin eTrex 20?

First of all connect your GPS unit to computer. Go to my PC. Then locate your Gps (say drive F:) Look for Garmin File, then look for GPX file. All your caches will be listed. Delete the files and picture files you do not need. Good luck!

I have been asking that questions ever since I bought mine many months ago. But the funny thing is that I have never needed to actually delete any. Over time, I have downloaded many times the capacity of the eTrex20 and there has never been a problem. If you really want to know, you may have to contact Garmin. Please let me know if you find out!

Thanks, Valdvogel...you gave me just the info I needed. Of course, the first inclination is to purchase an expensive NUVI, but it's good to know that an earlier hand-held works even better! We already have a GPS (Staples brand) that works great for road directions, but it uses wrong coordinates for geo-caching. It's just too difficult to"translate" the coordinates for every cache! Thanks again!

It looks like that's the purpose of the POI Loader software that you can download for free from Garmin. http://www.garmin.com/products/poiloader/ I doubt the added addresses would be routable, though.

You need to use the garmin virb edit software. If you download the video through the regular windows or imovie software you will loose the GPS info. Use only the virb edit software!

It does Geocaching and I believe you enter Long and Lat to find the sites, but I have never Geocached.I hope this helps

I have an eTrex 20 and I can enter L&L.; If the eTrex10 is similar, you go to the menu: go to the box marked "Where To? Click that box and on the next screen go to the "Coordinates" box and click. A new box will appear with "Enter Location" and below this title is the L&L; box that lets you enter coordinates. Hope this helps.

although i'm still acquainting myself with my etrex 10 and the manual is somewhat lacking, i'm pretty sure you can pick your waypointw and also delete all stored waypoints at one time. you might want to contact garmin customer service about these questions. i've done that a few times and the representatives have been quite helpful.

Hello, My experience with the GPSMAP 62 was not very good. The unit froze up several times during use and each time I had to restart the unit. Coworkers of mine use the GPSMAP 60 and really like it and I have heard the GPSMAP 64 is a good model. I recently purchased a Garmin Etrex 30 and I love it. I paid $200 and it's worth every penny. The new GLONASS technology in the etrex 30 is outstanding, I can be in the thickest timber canopy and still have &gt;20' accuracy. I hope this helps.

I very seldom look at the GPS unless I want yardage confirmation or the distance to the front or back of the green without shooting it with the laser. If you mean can you turn it off, I don't think so. You can delete the course out of the unit, which would in essence, disable the GPS. You can always reload the course through your iGolf account. I absolutely live my hybrid. Hope this helps!

Definitely OR, also, DO NOT buy the carrying case for eTrex 10! The carrying case that Amazon is selling as if it matches this device DOES NOT FIT! It's designed for (and fits perfectly with) the OLD Garmin eTrex units!

Yes, but it is not quite as easy and nifty as they make it look. I was disappointed in the Etrex 10. It does take getting use to, and the instructions that come with it are not very user friendly. You will need to download the bigger manual from the Garmin Internet sight. I bought the eTrex 10 and wish I had bought the higher model (or two) even though it cost a lot more. The eTrex 20 looks about the same as the eTrex 10, but in color. I would try to get some feedback from someone with the eTrex20 if that is the model you are considering. Hope this helps. LW

I have not used this GPS for Geocaching. If you need to access a web page, then you need either WIFI or cell phone coverage.

You can turn the "Record GPS data" feature on and off. You can also "update a GPS files" and "Erase GPS data"
