2 HLZ, which had been located at the Methodist Church in Cortez, was our only bummer of the day. I wasn’t able to find anything set in the only steps I could see on the property, and I searched the adjoining walk for any signs of old benchmarks as well. Nothing seemed to match the description perfectly, so perhaps the building has changed. There does appear to be an addition to the front of the church, where perhaps grand doors once stood.
