is Henson's Gap still shut down?

As far as I can determine the "NW" refers to the direction that Hensons Gap faces. Hensons Gap faces NW, Whitwell faces SE. There is Hensons Gap launch across the highway that faces SW, but it is not owned by the club and is officially ignored. The land owner lets us use the site but it is a "Don't ask, Don't tell" situation. The Hensons SW site is an undeveloped cliff launch. The club has an understanding with the landowner that we get first option on purchasing the site if it comes up for sale, but when it sells it is likely to be very expensive!

Whitwell launch is only 1/4 miled directly west, (and 1375 ft above ) downtown Whitwell TN.

I do not know what the CRTD means either???

I searched like the dickens and found no definition. I vote for "Coordinates Read, Time and Date" since the time, date and coordinates follow.

Please, someone tell us the actual facts. I need my sleep.

"created" as in the date the waypoint was created.

That's my guess.
