I am trying to find the field on Basecamp to enter map coordinates for finding locations on the 24k maps. The Montana has an entry field but where is it on the Basecamp page???

Finding coordinates in BaseCamp on a Mac is done by using the Waypoint Tool.
Click on the Waypoint Tool and click anywhere on the map. Use the Advanced tab and edit the coordinates. The Waypoint will move to the new coordinates as input.

Fast answer but where is the "Advanced Tab" you mention for editing. I found a gray "Advanced" properties but only showed the coord's for the random point on the map that clicked for the waypoint. Seems like this function could be easier to do??

Sorry, those instructions were for Mac.
For BaseCamp in PC, use the Waypoint Tool and create a waypoint anywhere on the map. Find the waypoint in the list on the left, right click on it and select the properties. Edit the location with the new coordinates.
