TheZoom21 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hello all, 1st time hiding a geocache. I am trying to put in the coordinates of where I want to hide it, and when I put it into the box and hit "Confirm Coordinates" button, nothing happens and the continue button does not light up. Any ideas? My numbers are: N 039 34.396' and W 105 09.317' ( I excluded the tick marks at the end.) Thanks! :) Quote Link to comment
+kunarion Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 (edited) Those are too many digits. It would me more like: N 39 34.396 W 105 09.317 Maybe? LAT degrees are two digits, LON degrees are three digits (although you usually may omit leading zeroes if any). Edited June 10, 2019 by kunarion Quote Link to comment
TheZoom21 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hey Kunarion, thanks for writing back. I tried removing the leading zeros, but still no luck. Quote Link to comment

The cache page also uses no comma. So try this and see if it's what you need: N 39 34.396 W 105 09.317 Quote Link to comment
+barefootjeff Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Make sure your home location is set in your profile. I recall something about this causing problems submitting coordinates on the cache creation page. Quote Link to comment
