Must be as tough as surveying in the wilds of North Aboyne or "8 Foot High Fence Republic of Texas" ?
Seriously, the determination and work of those of the generation 5 or 6 before us should be admired by us now.
Cheers,
Derek

Very interesting about the U.P.
I bet the compassman thought the world was coming to end when he got that reading.

The story goes: The first summer that Surveyor William Austin Burt spent in the U.P. He was so frustrated with the magnetic compass being useless because of the iron ore that he went home that winter and invented the solar compass. He is one guy in history that I would really like to meet.
