A nice looking geological formation

[JetJake76]

Hello,

During one of many sight-seeing flights over the South Atlantic map, I found some geological formation, that looked very nice form above, some kind of "table mountain". It's located in Argentina, about 15 km east of Rio La Leona river flowing between lakes of Lago Viedma and Lago Argentino. Unfortunately, I couldn't find name of this rock. I have uploaded an image from google maps.

The coords are: 50°00'55.1"S  71°50'51.9"W

Now I am building a helicopter base there

Anyone knows the name of that formation?

Interesting question.

Google Earth shows me a radio station named sitio mesete cotecal. Maybe is Cotecal the name of the formation?

[JetJake76]

Yes, but I think it's the name of the telecommunication company that installed their antennas there.

My beatifull Country... some Km around you have  "Estancia la Meseta" 99% chances they call "La Meseta" a that rock formation...

@JetJake76What altitude were you at with that? Looks like Google Earth! The formation is an ancient meteor crater, there are quite a few still here on our active Earth.

Well, it's a Google Map image.

Thanks! That's exactly the name! I did some research, but I found it strange, it's like "the mesa" or "the plateau" in English. I have created a mission with a base and good defensive position on the top, but what I did not know, it's an area of a national park

He posted the coordinates... grab a plane with INS navigation, and punch it in.

 

The coords are: 50°00'55.1"S  71°50'51.9"W

Same place, same coordinates. Between and just beyond the ends of two lakes, Argentino and Viedma.

[Mav783]

Ho understood! You mean this place (50°00'55.1"S  71°50'51.9"W) :

 

Is the same than this one ?

If both images are where the red marker is, they are:
