    Try going to -Edit-Waypoint Properties and see if you can select different Symbols from there.

    Also, you might try a complete uninstall, reinstall from an old version and then load the upgrade of the version you prefer.

    Let me know what happens…

    When that happened to me, I dumped it and reloaded 6.13.7

    I have no need for the large icons and find the older version to work very nicely in comparison.

    in reply to: "Tunnel of Terror" parking #1899371

    You have the correct parking place – but it is not a parking lot. During summer months, there is space SW of the intersection – but no telling about how high the snow is. We had a significant melt yesterday, 12/27.

    Havew fun – this is one of my favorites!

    I picked up four of the nuvi 200’s today: stocking-stuffers 😀

    I also learned one thing about long check out lines at WalMart: there weren’t any at the jewelry counter 😮

    This thread could go in a LOT of directions…

    What if one had a PC and an i-phone?

    in reply to: Most Mileage on a Travel Bug #1895395

    I’ve set free just one travel bug in my geocaching career, the Lil Otter, celebrating her 3000th find – back in 2004.

    From 5/2004 to 8/2005, it traveled 39,634 miles and saw places like Australia, Germany, Austria and Hungary.

    Turned up missing in Montana 🙁

    Definitely need to zoom out on the map…

    Hootie hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    in reply to: german to english #1894194

    I’ve geocached in Holland, Germany, Austria and Hungary. My technique was to download queries into GSAK on my laptop. Some geocache pages were in English: Germany is a big English speaking country. Some were in both languages, but most were in the native language.

    So, I just used GSAK to tell me the size, difficulty and terrain of the cache and went hunting. Just think like the hider.

    They REALLY are into puzzle caches and multi-caches there.

    I was able to make friends over there that actually helped me post some of my finds in German and English.

    Had a lot of fun geocaching there! Hope you do too!

    Looking at where the Y’s fall in this comparison, the ’60’ would be the one for me…

    in reply to: GPSr Car Mount Advice #1890097

    I use a bean bag mount for a Garmin Nuvi 760 with great success. The Colorado is much taller in profile – wouldn’t know about that. I used simple velcro for my GPS V before that – no problemo. (That would not work with the Colorado on top of the dash, might on a vertical surface.)

    My idea is to consider these temps as ‘practice caches’! Enjoy!
