Since you mentioned mapsource, I am assuming that you have and
using a Garmin gps unit. The only gps that I know off that lets you
download all the page info. is a Garmin I-Que.
Until just recently, I too used your method of entering
waypoints and in the last couple of months have, with some help
of close friends, I have gone paperless. The answer sounds very
complicated, but once everything is set up it is a snap to use.
First, I set up a series of pocket queries that I run weekly.
I then load them into a waypoint management database called GSAK (the
best $8.00 I have spent, I might add).
GSAK , allows me to load the waypoints into my 60C
and the page info. into a PDA.
Like I said earlier, it sounds complicated, but once
everything is set up it is a snap to use. With the PDA, I don't have to carry a
clip board full of printout's to rummage through for the info that I
need and I can enter notes about the cache I just
found.
I hope this helps,

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] a better
way!!
I haven't posted much but I have been lurking for
a long time. I know there has to be an easier way to have the caches in my gps
with the info from the pages. Right now I put them on my mapsource as
waypoints and download them into my gps when I am going somewhere. I also
print out the page from the website to take with me.
Can anybody tell me if there is an easier way to
do it??
Hope this makes sense!!
Thanx
Maillade
