well it might coincide with the elusive corporate limits of
whatever indian or municipal entity presently exists around there
whether under the name of harsens island or whatever
& if so then the junction of this boundary with caus on seaway
island would identify the most likely position of the lower
tricountry point to be formed by the american secessionist nation
but in that location it would clearly miss the most likely position
of the lower tricountry point to be formed by its canadian
secessionist nation counterpart
which would appear to fall at the junction with caus of the
present boundary of the walpole island indian reserve
as depicted or rather only suggested on the 100k usgs topo
presumably just offshore but very near the tip of seaway island
so basically what it is worth is a vote of no confidence or
noncorrespondence for any remaining quadricountry point hope
on or near seaway island
tho happily not yet an absolute bust of its crazy candidacy
also i have browsed up to a couple of pdf maps of the saint clair
flats wildlife area for possible corroborations
but am pdf blind at the moment
so maybe there will be more to come here too
however lets remember there is no reason to expect that any of
this could really happen
hahaha
& the odds against any quadricoincidence occurring without help
were already astronomically huge to impossible anyway
so this situation could only be a pale imitation at best of
say
the real if also darkhorse quadricountry point hope at bwnazmzw
which is presently under urgent discussion & maybe even action
by botswana & zimbabwe
or the mexican quadristate point hopes
which i am still expecting will be nailed down manana per victors
earlier request
or peters new spanish quadriprovincial point hope
which i still think marcel or someone will confirm
on that other funny little island
etc etc
but i guess any hi level quadripoint fodder whether pro or con
would have to be considered as worth a good deal
