Rich and I were in the area and took a few moments to search for this mark today, without any success. Like Holograph, we noted the anomalous patch of gravel, but if the roads are in approximately the same location as when the mark was set, the gravel patch is too far from the roads’ centerlines to have been the correct spot. Still, it is worthy of investigation. On a warm, sunny day we would have spent hours here if necessary, measuring from the roads and thoroughly checking all the visible outcrops, but today was far too frigid and windy. We hope to return!
