So I was surfing the web for locations............

Post by junkman306 »

For some caves and I googled dewitt cave and this came up. It's a site and it shows all the geological features of a county and their coordinates. How cool is that? now if I only had a gps unit.

What's the point of making a point if the point you are trying to make is pointless? Do you get my point?

That's a cool site. Unfortunately those aren't valid GPS coordinates. GPS should follow a pattern like this:

N 34° 22.218'
W 093° 39.935'

they're not meant to be GPS coords... (i didn't bother opening the site at all) They're Township, Range and Section numbers... you can enter those into topozone.com and get a topo map of the area... pinpoint it on the map then transfer that over to Google Earth...

Each section is a one mile by one mile square.
If you go to the county surveyor with the info they should be able to get you a copy of the map
for that location, and sometimes they can let you
look at aerial photos. Not the best way, but the most
popular before gps was available for civilian use.
