A report on the condition of this survey mark has been submitted to NGS, along with the following recovery note:

Reference mark 2 was recovered in good condition. It is now flush with the ground. The blazed trees were not found. A new route is required because the roads described are no longer passable by vehicle. The station may be reached on foot from the lower day-use area of Nescopeck State Park, but a stream crossing is necessary. If permission can be obtained, the best approach may be to park along the shoulder of Interstate 80 westbound and hike approximately 350 feet directly north to the mark.
