Read the inscription and use it to find the actual location of the cache as follows.
1)Take the second letter in the inscription and use the number that represents it’s alphabetical position, (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.) in place of the X below, then add the two North coordinates together to find the cache.
2)Actual cache location is
N 42.37.3117 + N 00.00.X000

The calculation is not real tricky, but a direct path to the resulting location may require some bushwhacking.
Please replace camouflage after finding the cache.
Good luck !!
