+nostrada Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Fellow Cachers, I am trying to get the Where's In A Name Cache done. My user name is Nostrada, this converts following the guidelines to: 66 78 72 which then divided by 2 results in 33° 39.36' This could be LA or Phoenix. I'd appreciate your help in snapping a picture along these coordinates and you can claim a find as well. Drop me a reply or mail if you want to assist - I would highly appreciate it. Thanks, Nostrada ... where is it? Quote Link to comment
+PhilippeGPS Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Nostrada, I'm not 100% sure, but I think you're only supposed to divide the minutes by 2, not the who;e coordinates. At least that's how I read the instructions. So that would give you 66 39.72 . Quote Link to comment

Thanks for checking. These long/lat is still confusing me profoundly. Markus ... where is it? Quote Link to comment
+PhilippeGPS Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Nostrada, looking at your coordinates (66 39.72) you may have more options than you think. Using 66 as your W longitude: - northeastern Canada (New Brunswick) Using 66 as you N latitude: - Norway, Sweden, Finland Good Luck! Quote Link to comment

The Finland one is very, very high up in the north. I could also go for Pakistan or antartica ;-) This will be interesting. No way of deleting a post or changing the title, eh? ... where is it?
