Yammy Posted June 20, 2010 #1 Posted June 20, 2010 This is the 1st of hopefully 4. Don't know how to put in the degree sysble after the 44 and 073? N 44 37.755' W 073 14.921'

Yammy Posted June 23, 2010 Author #4 Posted June 23, 2010 Trying this again N 45° 11.395¢ W 067° 16.945¢ Never expected it hard to find a good metal hiding place. Or, getting it hidden without being noticed. This one isn’t in a scenic spot but for those traveling many (Can-eh-dns) find it a good place to stop when leaving the U.S. Cheers

N 44 37.755' W 073 14.921' You could use decimal degrees. Divide the minutes by 60. 44.629250, -73.248683 (the minus is West and/or South) Lots of GPSr and programs like decimal degrees anyhoo. Dave

My grand kids love to hunt for geocaches. I was just trying to keep it in the family. By posting a coordinate here, odds are it will be found by a fellow member.
