Some confusion

I noted that the coordinates for the source and mouth differ from those given by the USGS GNIS (which I added as an external link), but the footnotes for elevations said GNIS coordinates were used. I removed this because it does not appear that GNIS coords were used at all. What was the source used for the coordinates? Also if there is a South Fork Little Mashel River, which is given its own section, how can Midway Creek be the only named tributary? The USGS topo maps I have show Midway Creek and no other named tributaries. If Midway Creek is the only one with a name, where the South Fork get its name? Pfly (talk) 22:34, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
