Check with the forestry company that has the logging rights on your land and they should be able to give you a large map of your line only. From there you can find the coordinates you want. Depends on how many natural boundardies your line follows but the basics will be there....
PM me if you are in my area and I can tell you who to contact..

you can do it using ozi explorer. just need coordinates of the boundarys, and build a route, which will display. That's the cheapest way I can think of doing it. Ozi is around $100

Yes. Need a GPS (garmin) need garmin MapSource Mapping Software, Topo preferred, installed in/on your computer, The Lat/Long's of the boundry, loaded in the software, connect the dots with the Route Tool, Send to the GPS and you will have what you want. I have done this for the Luscar/Cheviot Mine Site Corner Coordinates. This took me quite some time to do as there were +- 157 Wapoints to Convert/Transferr, from the data that was supplied from TECK Mining, Public access map, from their site.
