Cooler Crew Cachers

I might be interested in selling mine... trying to raise funds for a Rino 530

Thanks Mucky...! I e-mailed him....

np

Hey, and I was just going to throw in my 2-cents worth on the Garmin Legend, and now your going to corrupt him with a magellin.. :goofy: Oh well.

yes yes I have her- I will get her somewhere soon

like the pic with mikey :smile:

I didn't realize I have parts that twist :wink:

you know that's a cache in crosy right??

anything to do with crosby is all good :wink:

I thought that was the warrior woman tb herself-

whoops

ty

I didn't know I was on the page. Cool!

anybody going to Cedarville, MI -- b4 Christmas??

holy crap...thats UP there...

I'd need somebody with a gps and knows how do Hide something...

Nope, I will be in Michigan B4 christmas, but it looks to be about as far from Cedarville as you can get and still be in the state. Heading to Sturgis, Michigan for a wedding...

hmmm

the stugis name rang a bell with me..

where is the midwest geobash??

is it the same place as last year??

looks damn close to where mucky family is...

Kendalville Indiana. It'll be the same spot it was in last year.

Just looked that up on google maps - and was surprised to see a Marquette near there. Didn't know there were two Marquettes in the UP.

So I bought Posen's extra Magellan 500 today. Upon opening it, I found that the basemap was corrupt and I got a NAND error. I called Magellan, they said that I would need to send it in for a replacement. Normally they require a receipt for warranty service, as the warranty is only for one year and without a receipt they would have no way of knowing when the unit was purchased. They were really nice about it, and after I explained that I didn't buy it from a store and thus had no receipt, said they would send me a new GPS unit. I had to give them my credit card #, the deal is that I have a month after I receive the new unit to send them the defective one or I get charged. Hopefully it all works out, I'm shocked (in a good way) that they're doing this as they clearly don't have to under their warranty policy.

It is definitely some good PR though

glad that worked out for ya....iffin you have questions about that GPS once you get I'd be happy to consult, I'm no expert but I use the same one....say Diggin just got that one too...maybe I should teach a class :goofy:

maybe I should teach a class



<<-------- Would rather have private tutoring! :pbpt:

Oh the things I could teach you :wink:

Oh man do I want to comment but I just noticed that this isn't the no-mod thread :goofy: :eek:

1st thing - don't drop the gps in Crosby Park...like a bar of soap in the shower :sheepish:

so you're sending them a used gps and they are sending you a new one? very nice

It was actually unopened, and DOA.

wow...when I called Magellan a few years ago it was like pullin' teeth...but a phone call to the president's home...solved that :wink:

anytime hun

Man, BFG, you should never buy anything from that guy...who knows what evil things he's done with it....

Sorry about the hassle...I was just trying to be like Mucky and own a Magellan.

My new GPS got here yesterday! It works fine. Does anyone know a way to get detailed maps without spending $100 for Directroute or Topo?

I don't know of a way at all.....

That's the problem with GPSrs. Most manufacturers design them so you HAVE to buy their mapping software. There are some open source alternatives for the major ones (Garmin and Magellan), but they rely totally on user submitted maps. Meaning if someone hasn't taken the time to map out the streets here in the metro, you won't have a map to use. If you wanted to spend the time though, you could plot out the maps for this area, heh.

Thanks, I just realized that the box had a big sticker on it with a discount code to buy TOPO 3D for just $10. Considering it's normally $150, that's not a bad deal. The program seems to work fine.

but topo wont give you streets and points of interest like banks retaraunts...I put mapsend direct route on mine gives auto routing which is nice

Is topo good for ATV trails? I'd buy it for $10 and get the other one.

Mine has streets and points of interest, maybe I have a newer version.

topo isn't great for much in this state or area...

unless your near a hilly area...

I'd say for 4wheeling the roadmaps would help the best...I notice for snowmobiling I have all the fireroads and minor roads...

does it have your local streets...every street?

mine basically came with the locations of every lake in the state incase I wanted to go fishing

::rolls eyes::

Yep! Although it's slightly outdated. I was giving it a test spin today at Mounds Park this afternoon after class, it still shows the triangle of roads where the medallion was in 1987, even though one of those streets is a dead end now. Speaking of which, does someone have the gps file of all the past medallion locations?

you do know that there arn't any medallions hidden out there anymore dontcha? :wink:

nice job, me2 :ooh: :smile:

Sweet thanks :smile:

Out of curiosity, how do we know the coordinates for the older hunts? Also, are the 2004 coordinates the spot where it was hidden or the spot where it was found?
