Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES
But it'll do for wandering around aimlessly


This one goes out to all the programmers out there. You know who you are (though some of you might not admit it.) This is the second in a series, and this time is a little trickier (I think.) There are several scarlet things with which you must cut down the tallest tree in the forest.
 

'#include <iostream> /*\r\n\r\n*/ using namespace std;'
'int main (){cout << "N 40° 19.008";return 0;} /*int*/'

q=chr(176):s=chr(32): h=chr(78):b=chr(87):p=chr(46):t=3
'public class DsplyCoord{public static void main //void
