The Montana 600/650 series can index up to 12,000 geocaches using the GPX format.
The Montana 610/680 series can index over 4 million geocaches using the GGZ format.

Tip: Add benchmarks to your Garmin GPSr!


Find A Geocache


 
  • The geocache list will reflect any currently active geocache filter.
  • Only the nearest 1000 geocaches within a radius of approximately 100 miles from your present location will be displayed.
  • Geocaches located outside these boundaries are always visible on the map display.
  • Use Search Near to view a list of geocaches by proximity to a user specified location.
  • If geocaches loaded on the GPSr are not displayed, carefully recheck all geocache filter settings.
