Puntzi Mountain Airport

edit

the cite I have used to expand that page says that there was a a Pine Tree Line base called "Puntzi", near Puntzi Mountain and Puntzi Lake; this would seem to be an error in the source and it must be the Mid-Canada Line that's meant.....but I have found no other reference to this base....would it have been Canadian Forces Station Puntzi or CFS Puntzi or - ??Skookum1 (talk) 20:33, 19 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

northern US=

edit

"The Pinetree Line was a series of radar stations located across the northern United States and southern Canada at about the 50th parallel north"

I find this expression unprecise, because many people refer 'northern US' to Alaska Pl2241 (talk) 13:50, 18 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

CFS Alsask Coordinates

edit

The coordinates listed for the CFS Alsask site are 51°22′00″N 109°58′59″W which is too far South and East. The base was North of Alsask and the radar domes were a bit farther north of that, on the other side of the highway. There is one remaining dome which is now a protected heritage site and maybe the last remaining Pinetree Line dome? You can see it clearly on the satellite images at 51.392115, -110.003223 and easily from the highway. You can drive up to it, but you can't go inside. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jadeonly (talkcontribs) 17:34, 27 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

I'm going to attempt to edit the article to have the correct coordinates. For some reason edits I make seem to always get undone, but maybe this one will stick. Since this dome is actually still standing (maybe the last one from Pinetree?) you can see on the satellite images that my coordinates are correct.

Going to change Coord|51|22|00|N|109|58|59|W| to Coord|51|23|31|N|110|00|12|W| — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jadeonly (talkcontribs) 16:54, 19 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
