Geocaching Menu 1.2.1

Upload waypoints from Safari directly to your GPS receiver
Geocaching Menu makes it easy to download geocaching waypoints from webpages directly to your GPS receiver without the need of first saving these on the computer.

Geocaching Menu is shareware so you can try it out for free without any obligations to buy it. All features are enabled in the unlicensed version. You may use Geocaching Menu for free for as long as you like. However if you like it and find it useful, we kindly request that you buy a personal license for only $8. This will help us fund further development of new features in the software.

What is geocaching?
"Geocaching is an outdoor treasure-hunting game in which the participants use a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches" or "caches") anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and "treasure," usually toys or trinkets of little monetary value."

  • Distributed with GPSBabel 1.3.3. For a detailed list of the changes in GPSBabel 1.3.3 please visit the GPSBabel site.

Supported GPS receivers:

When using serial connection make sure that the GPS is set for "Garmin mode" in the setup and that nothing else is using the serial port. If you are connecting via USB (Garmin only) then make sure that you have only attached one GPS at a time.
If you have a GPS receiver you would like supported in Geocaching Menu please post a message in the online forum requesting so.

System requirements:

Geocaching Menu requires Mac OS X 10.4 or newer. It also requires Safari and an internet connection as well as a GPS receiver to upload the waypoints to.
Geocaching Menu is Universal Binary meaning that it will run natively on both PowerPC and Intel based Macs.
