Okay, I know it's a re-run, but I think I have different information now.

The shapefiles that I have for the Birkebeiner Ski Festival appear to be in 10TM format... 10 degree Transverse Mercator.

PROJCS["Transverse Mercator",
GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983",
DATUM["D_North_American_1983",
SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],
UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],
PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],
PARAMETER["False_Easting",500000.0],
PARAMETER["False_Northing",0.0],
PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",-115.0],
PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9992],
PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0.0],
UNIT["Meter",1.0]]

Is this a format that I can successfully convert to the lat/long version that Xastir wants to see?

Please say yes!
