Where's In a Name Cache

[+GroundClutter]

Ok, I think I would like to try this cache

http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=gc3153

My name comes out to 47 34.32

 

Now this is probably a really stupid question, but, how do I find out where that is?

convert it properly and plug it into mapquest... this is a very basic method

What you have to do now is choose between using your coords as latitude or longitude. 47° longitude is in the middle of the Atlantic so latitude is best choice. If you look at a digital map like MS Streets & Trips of North America you will see that N47°34.32 cuts through Nfld., N.B., Que., and Northern Ont. then continues on across northern US. If you want to stay Canadian then you will have to hook-up with someone in those provinces who can possibly visit your latitude coord and complete the cache requirements usually a picture or two.

Looking at my S&T map of all Cdn caches I would say your best bet is a cacher in either St. John's, Nfld. area or Bathurst, N.B.

 

Good Luck, Olar

Did you get any help yet. WIsh i had noticed this one yesterday i did another for someone not far from here. I travel by here a couple times a month so if you still need i can get it for you in a couple weeks.
