Comments on the location information

  • INFO FROM LAND.ST :(1971)
  • Political location in record is Granite county. However, lat/long plot in Deer Lodge county. Original coordinates for line#1 were: lat/long NAD27 46-8-16N 113-3-0W (46.13778 -113.05); UTM N<blank> E<blank> Z<blank>; PLSS line# 1: Meridian- Montana Principal, TWNSHP 008N, RNG 012W, Sect 24, Sect_fract <blank>. Duplicate record 10124093 has identical longitude, but 46 26 13N latitude, which plots in Granite county. Relative position description of 0.7 KM SSW OF ROSE MOUNTAIN agrees with duplicate record location in Granite county. PLSS location is consistent with the Granite county location. The latitude was changed to 46 26 13N, calculated with WGS84 datum, which makes it more consistent with relative position description than with NAD27 datum.
