Coordinates

50.00000°N / 120.00000°E is not correct.
Note that this mountain is in the western hemisphere

The coordinates I have are 50°32'60.00"N and 120°34'60.00"W
I am not sure how that translates into the way summitpost uploads coordinates.

Hey, thanks for catching this. It was a typo when I was putting this page together. Your correct that this is obviously a wrong coordinate. I have posted the correct one from my files that will put you on the true summit. The one that you have posted above will put you at about 5900' and about .6 miles northeast of the summit. Thanks again for catching this!

Re: Good Eye

Great page! One correction for you though. The lat / lon coordinates are probably correct but when lifting these numbers on SP you have to include a (-) symbol before the longitude. Try 50.54194°N / -120.58889°E and then check the link to see if it displays the right map. I've had issues with this on my pages too.
