Narrative and photographs
This has to be one of the most beautiful benchmark locations we’ve ever visited! Unfortunately we were unable to find the mark even after wading around in the water in search of the monument. The area has changed significantly since the mark was described. We found one of the objects used as a reference to this mark, which is a chiseled cross set in the concrete headwall forming the boundary of the pool. Our guess is that the monument may have been destroyed or covered when the boat dock referred to in its description was removed.
