[NLRS] My Duluth Trip this week

[Donn Baker]

Hi Guys,
I don't have the definitive answer, but:
The shore at Wawa, near the mouth of the Mish----- (can't spell it) River
is 74* 55.82'N  84* 50.41'W.

The airport shows to be a mile or so South of the town of Wawa (at least
the junction of the major highways).

It doesn't really matter: at 350 miles, the error from the center of
4-digit coordinates to 6-digit ones is insignificant.

73 Donn

PS.  Good hunting, Dave!  Thompson Hill, and Kitchi Gammi Parks are two
spots we hope would work... longest paths!
