Any fellow Geocachers?

We're going to try with DH's Magellan from school. We just need to figure out how to put in coordinates by hand. I figure if we do a few close ones that way and really enjoy it, it will be worth finding a GPS of our own.

What model is it? Most of them you can get on the Magellan site.

It's a SporTrak too! I had to find where he'd stashed out of our son's view. It's very basic. He says he paid less than $100 for it. I can't see anywhere on it where you could add a cable though. I'll have to look into it more I guess. It's several years old now.

Is it the basic Sportrac or the Sportrac pro?

Basic. Checked Ebay but couldn't find the model but this video goes with it and you can see the model in the picture. That is exactly what he has. I'm thinking the video may well be worth $8.95 plus shipping!http://cgi.ebay.com/Magellan-SporTr...VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247

Hi I'm into cashing and I'm a member of the website! So glad to see that other people do it who are on this website.

I was going through all the replies and since I made the original post we now have "smart" phones we can use for Caching, but they don't work where the signal is bad or non-existant. I still love my Magellan, but had to upgrade to a newer one, my old one didn't work with the newer computer link ups. Cache on!

It's Geocaching, treasure hunting with a GPS or smart phone. Go to Geocaching.com and check it out, it's great family fun and a blast on vacations.
