Narrative and photographs
B 70 RESET was part of the “benchmark bonanza” we stumbled upon at the western end of the old Seven Mile Bridge. There are four marks at this end of the bridge, two within less than a foot of each other (DUCK 2 and B 70 RESET). The mark is set at the extreme top of the northern wingwall of the old bridge, the western end of which is now used as a fishing pier. The benchmark is in good condition.
