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
