A patron here is looking for maps at the 1:50K or 1:100K scale showing
four mountains on the eastern end of the Tamrau Gebergte (Tamrau,
Pegunungan) mountain range on the Jazirah Doberai (Bird's Head Peninsula)
in Irian Jaya, Indonesia. The specifics or mountain name/height/long&lat
are:
 
1. Mt. Irau     8471ft  0 38' 30"S/ 132 54' --" E
2. Unknown      8045ft  0 41' --"S/ 133  4' 45" E
3. Unknown      7418ft  0 36' 30"S/ 133  1' 50" E
4. Mt. Bonari?  7452ft  0 35'30" S/ 132 58' --" E
 
The patron believes that these mountains will be found on a topographic map
entitled Sansapor, No. 2915, and on sub-section sheets Nos. 2, 3, and 5.
This information comes from Inventory of World Topographic Mapping, Vol.3
(1989), p. 157 and 159.
 
An alternate source of info is the US Army Map service map 1:250,000,
Sheet SA 53 - 1, Series T504.
 
Is anyone on this list willing to lend these maps on ILL? Some librarians
on this list may have already had enquiries from this patron as he has
done a lot of leg-work himself.
 
Any assistance is appreciated.
