The Scoop on Lake Murray's
Reference Lights

George Frederick has compiled this table of the Reference Lights on Lake Murray including the Differential GPS Latitude and Longitude for each. Member Lewis Lapine provided the Differential GPS positions. You can enter each light into your GPS as a way point using the Latitude and Longitude and therefore should be able to determine where you are even if you are unable to figure out the flash sequences.

Odd numbered lights are green. Even numbered lights red.
