Yes, it does in the absence of a 'W'.

  Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Longitude question



  Hi All,

  I have been doing some reading on longitude and latitude and  how to
calculate distances. I came across a Longitude of  -111.xxxx. The question
is: does the Minus sign before the 111 mean West?

  Thanks






  Andrew
