We have a Magellan and wanted a second unit so we purchased a Garmin Oregon 200. My question to other Garmin users is how do you change the coordinates of a mystery or puzzle cache. Since the geocaches are downloaded directly, I can't seem to find a way to change them. :(

I mark a new waypoint and then manually change the coordinates.  Once found, I go back to the cache and enter found.

I do the same thing as ChrisDom - enter the new coordinates as a waypoint.
