Google Maps Range Locations

[AlanF]

Some time ago on the forum somewhere, there was a discussion about map references for ranges. I have put a page on the ozfclass.com website for this purpose. All that is there currently is ranges I have visited, so if your range isn't there, please send the coords and we'll add it to this page.

SEE HERE (third item down)

There's a couple of the NSW ranges which need to be confirmed because the Google photos don't show anything (possibly because the ranges were built since the photography?)

These are Coonabarabranand Cootamundra

Perhaps those who know these ranges well can help?

Cootamundra has been there long before Google.

Thanks Mike. Have now found Cootamundra. It seems there was a 0.8 degree error in the longitude.

[DaveMc]

A couple more.

Mossman 16.29.5, 145.25.55
Raglan 23.42.48, 150.48.35

Typo on the orignal with the extra "8" Doh!

You might have a look at these Google Earth coordinates of ranges worldwide - not recently updated. Note the warning not to use with Google Maps because of file size: http://productforums.google.com/forum/# ... LzJpLPcXhM

Thanks to all for the info.

I have just added a number of WA ranges from Google Earth list (thanks JohnK), but a couple don't look right, so I left them off. If anyone can pinpoint Geraldton-Greenough and Dowerin it would be appreciated.
