Geocache Description:

This is a good spot to watch the salmon spawn if you're there during the right time of year.

This cach is located at N60°44.281 W149°21.842 however a typo has occured and this is incorrect. To solve the problem you must first go to the posted coordinates and find the secret code. This is a good spot to Stretch the legs and, if its a nice day take a few photographs. Look around and you'll find a set of four alpha-numeric symbols. They are out in the open and easy to see. The next step is to convert the ALPHABETIC symbol to its corresponding place in the alphabet. For example, M is the 13th letter of the alphabet. This new number must be FOLLOWED by the decimal point for this simple calculation. (Use ONLY the converted number, disregard the rest of the #'s.) Now, with this number in mind, SUBTRACT it from the MINUTES of LATITUDE (thats the set of #'s with the "N" before them)
This is the new coordinates for the cache. The longitude coordinates do not change.
