Mr. Goodpaster uses UTM coordinates in his book Hinterlands to describe trailheads, overlooks and intersections.
example; Eagle Point Buttress 17S 0274487 4189636
My Magellan Triton and Vantagepoint wont accept them as they are. Does any one know of a web based converter out there? I need to convert them to Lat/Lon and I can't seem to do that.

Can you change your coordinate system in your GPS?
