This benchmark disk was easy to locate using the description. The details were accurate, even after 35 years. I felt a bit conspicuous when photographing this marker as it’s located quite close to two homes, but at least I didn’t have to take much time to search. The witness sign made it obvious where to look. The concrete monument isn’t in great shape and is becoming overgrown, but the marker itself is in good condition.
