Gene, Welcome to a great pasttime. We use Geocache.com exclusively, I think they are the only one. We use Google maps to get us close to the area, then use our eTrex HCx to lead us to the cache. You probbly want to use pedestrian mode once you get close. I am not familiar with your unit. I would suggest starting out with the ones marked easy until you get used to your GPS unit. We usually look for caches around city and state parks and take a lunch with us and do a picnic while out. We also find it a great way to see areas we would not normally see just sightseeing. Have a great time and post your results often. We are going out tomorrow for some hiking and geocaching in the Ft. Walton Beach area of Florida.
