W 073 14.921'

In Windows, hold "ALT" key and type 0176. °

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.

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.

Are you hiding geocaches? Sounds like that is what you are doing.

Yes, it is the same. 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.

A cool idea, too!
