Re: My visit to Campione d'Italia

for example
if mapquest here can be believed

this arbica tripoint may fall some 20 or 30 meters
north of the corner marker

& whether it can be believed about this detail or not
mapquest presents 2 additional highly credible
tripoints for campione
one of them where arogno evidently meets lugano on dry
land 
aka arluca
apparently situated at the exact northeast corner of
campione 
& possibly even exactly at marker number 1
so there is already reason for us to be curious about
this too 
& for the next visitor to actually make the try there
as well

& michelin generally concurs 
but adds 3 more wet trimunicipal points besides 
yikes

for a total of 6 in all it seems
namely 
in counterclockwise order
first these 2 drypoints
arbica & arluca
followed by the 4 midlake wetpoints
calupa with pa as in paradiso
cacapa with a second ca as in carona i think
cacame with me as in melide
& bicame back to bissano

& this cool half dozen stands a good chance of being
the full 
even if still preliminary
