&gt;<br/>
&gt;&gt;There even apears to be a tripoint on the island between Norway and two<br/>
&gt;&gt;Swedish &gt;municipalities.<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;I have contacted the two Swedish municipalities, and they both confirm an<br/>
&gt;administrative tripoint.<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;Can you beat that in N-America?<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>i dont think we can<br/>
<br/>
that is positively awesome<br/>
<br/>
an insular  international  or first class  trisubdivisional  point<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
i know the much larger islands of hispaniola & borneo can match this feat<br/>
technically<br/>
but it is not so impressive an accomplishment in their cases as it is when<br/>
tiny hison does it<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
i also think our local point pride in north america must be limited to more<br/>
mundane things like the triple tristate of kymotn<br/>
  a purely secondary level ensemble<br/>
    in the mississippi river<br/>
or the quinticounty of okeechobee<br/>
  the tertiary level maxipoint apparent<br/>
    in a lake<br/>
but we have never had anything anywhere near this cool on an island<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
i was also glad to see your other research & that you guys can dish up some<br/>
pretty fine topos yourselves</div>
