Narrative and photographs

Eagle-eyes are required to discern this chiseled cross. I was looking directly at it and still wasn’t positive I had found the mark. Fortunately Rich was there and was able to confirm it. He explained to me how he thought the bridge had been modified. We also spent a few minutes poking around in the brush looking for LY1758, which should be somewhere nearby—but the description didn’t seem to match the surroundings.
