Try this:

X field is Long

Y field is lat

Don't click DMS - leave unchecked.

Click add and see if those now line up where they need to line up. I 
tossed an OSM map up there and I'm assuming these are road outcrops - so 
I feel mostly good about the import.

I hope this email finds you in the mountains, and as sun peeps through the trees the squirrels begin foraging.
