I tried something new while hiking in Georgia this weekend with my new eTrex Vista HCx, and I thought some of you might find it interesting. Check out:

You will need to have Google Earth installed, of course. You do all have Google Earth, right?

:-)

We hope to cover some more trails in North Georgia in the coming weeks.

Let me know what you think!

Team Mojoski, searching high and low!

I think that's really cool! But where are the pix of the caches you passed along the way? Wink

How long did it take you to compose each of those kmz's?

That is way cool! It views fine on my Mac, too!
(click the camera icons along the trail and the pictures are available to view)
I might try and see if I can create one with the MacOSX. Thanx for sharing this novel idea with us.

Thanks, guys! I knew you folks would appreciate the coolness factor.

Now that I have done it twice, I'd say it's about a 15-30 minute task, depending on how many images you have and how much effort you want to put into the pic titles and descriptions..

Let me know if you want details on the process that I don't cover on the web page..
