SV: afcntj on google earth

That 1:500 000 map is no good help.
 
I have placed the pushpin on the ridge junction. I don't know what it was
doing on the side in the first place. I suspect Goole Earth may have made
some adjustments since I place it initially.
 
The new position will be added to version 2 of the tripoints - however it
will take months before we we through all points and GE has updated their
database.

for this reason i would place the pushpin at the snowy
ridge junction
east southeastward of the tripoint position shown in
the google border line overlay
as indicated there at roughly
n lat 37d14m02s & e long 74d63m23s

& i would consider that correct only to within about
100 meters
owing to the limitations of the photography & geocoord
registry etc
albeit the best known try to date
