Bearcat, I never really understood coordinates .... Miss Garmin, MapSource and I have agreed to use a system called WSG 84 out of a seemingly infinite number of possible choices. This system is expressed by N, S, E, W followed by two digits, a dot and six digits. So your coordinates would be N45.25000 W94.25700 just to fill in the numbers you gave. Do you understand coordinate systems? Was hoping no one would spoil my coordinates mystery for you but now you know. Not far from the river. Another hint (no spoilers please), "close to water but not a river".

Troy joined us from Pennsylvania. Welcome!
Coordinates In the first place, I messed up the coordinate system myself. I said it needed six digits after the dot. Wrong. Five digits. Lil' Brother will pass the place going North from Burnsville. PecosRiverM finds the place in the Mississippi River near Clearwater. If I enter the digits from Bearcat's numbers into my WSG 84 system, I'll land some 20 miles SW of Clearwater. So, am I confused?  Bearcat, I'll ever never find that bear rug this way  |

Airborne? My first 8 yrs was artillery (artillery does it with a bigger bang) or (when in doubt, take the grid square out)!  Arrived there in 82, 1st Cav. after a nice base in hawaii. Left for Germany in 92.

I find Maria Lake and Bunt Lake some 7-8 kilometers
- you have been to Germany; they do metric - SW from Clearwater city center. I also find several lakes north of the Mississippi River, but I'll put my money on one of the two I mentioned, Bearcat. Don't ask why, please. |
