Narrative and photographs
This drill hole could be challenging to find because it is small, blends in quite easily with the surrounding rock, and the triangle is shallowly chiseled. The to-reach and description are accurate and precise, however; once in the area we discovered that there were only two possible locations to check. The location of this mark is indicated by a painted “10” on the street, similar to what we found at 16718-11 nearby (although at that station, the entire designation was painted on the street).
