User Data Limitations of the Oregon 600 Series

When sending or creating files for an Oregon® 600 series outdoor handheld, keep in mind the following limitations:

  • 2,000 GPX files

  • 4,000 waypoints

  • 4 Million geocaches1

  • 200 routes, 250 points per route; 50 points turn-by-turn routing

  • 200 saved tracks

  • 2,000 archive tracks2

  • 10,000 points per track

  • 500 custom map tiles

  • 250 BirdsEye Imagery files

  • Mapping segments3 vary by model:

    • Oregon 600, 650: approximately 4,000

    • Oregon 600t, 650t: approximately 3,500 (due to internal mapping)

Each GPX file can contain a mixture of waypoints, geocaches, routes and tracks. If the GPX file containing a waypoint or geocache is deleted, the waypoint will no longer be available on the device.

When utilizing routes, only 50 points can be used for turn-by-turn navigation on roads or trails.


1 4 Million geocaches is using the GGZ file configuration supported by some 3rd party geocache websites. Recommend less than 4,000 geocaches if loading as GPX direct from geocaching.com.

2 Archive tracks do not count against GPX file limit; 1 archive track per gpx file.
