I just looked at the pocket query page and they removed the map link so you can't view a map anymore of the pocket query results.

I have seen the map link icon come and go several times over the past 2 weeks on the pocket query page. I use that functionality a lot. It will probably be back tomorrow. |

| Hey Gang, What am I doing wrong. I pull up the map and get Seattle and put something into the ZOOM TO. It just goes to a blank map. Whats up with that. Did I miss a memo? |

| I liked it better before, they removed the information window at the top of the screen and cache index on the right side. You can launch a pop up window, for cache listings, but have to navigate to the actual page to get the rest of the info. |
Oh - clicking on a cache icon brings up the cache info screen, like it better now. |

More changes this morning! Now the listing of caches displayed on the screen is back. I was moving around on the map and got an error once, had to close the screen and start over.
I like that disabled caches are a different color (gray) than the rest.
And, it looks like you can create a pocket query from what you are looking at on the map! That could save some time!

| The google map view now has Topo and Digital Orthographic Quadrangle (DOQ) options in addition to the map and satellite views. I wonder why I can't do topo in regular google maps... |
