Geocaching Australia

The Garmin Oregon Wiki reckons that up to 16 GB has been used here.

You need v4.0 of the software, then you get "enter next stage" as an option while you're seeking a cache. See my post here

Hi Phillip. What is a Prickstock? I can see one in several of the photos, and it is labelled in one of them.

We cached on Christmas day last year... and this year we even found one!

We'd just like to reaffirm our great interest in a NZ Mega event - Oct 2012 would be best for us...

A lot of kiwis seemed to come over here for mega wagga. It might pay to ask them what their thoughts on accomodation/rental etc are. Probably wouldn't take much to hire/(buy?) a tent and rent a car for a week or so. All depends on the available facilities I suppose.

I was chatting to 3up the other day saying "I would be very upset if anything happened to my Colorado" only to find when I returned to the car that the backlight for the screen had stopped working.

We recently went the Eneloop way, and they work really well especially after sitting in the caching bag for a couple of weeks. One thing we did find is that the Eneloop charger has breathed new life into some of our old NiMH (energizer, Dick Smith, varta) batteries. Watch out for the old varta-charg...

Thats just not true, Biggles of Oz thanked you.

True! I will continue my efforts,

I have posted GZ photos before... My log for A Watery Transit and my log for Frankston Bypass 2 - by Night. Nobody has ever thanked me for my help though.

Hi GMJ, Here's a better description of what happened: On the colorado, when selecting from the geocache screen, any caches on the list before yours would display their details fine/ Yours and after would show a blank screen for the details, and lock up.
