Thank you for posting this video. I just bought a Garmin GPS for geocaching and the printed directions are TERRIBLE. You have made this a breeze! I can't wait to go out!

how old is this gps device?

This is the venture Garmin model; I believe most of the direction given with this model would be relavant to the latest Garmin models. good luck!

Hey... way to go! It really is a blast, but here in WI, the mosquitos are so bad right now it is hard doing any difficult quests! Stick with it~

Can you help me open the batteries for this Garmin model?

Go to the 5 minute, 55 second spot of the video. It shows you how to open the back of the unit.
