I went searching for New York / Pennsylvania Border Monument #31 based on its location on the West Binghamton Quadrangle. I found the monument but it wasn't the original, rather a replacement established in 1980. The monument is a granite marker projecting 1 foot above ground level. The monument has a chiseled "X" across the top of it. The North face reads "NY". The South face reads "PA". The East face reads "M31". The West face reads "1980". The monument is 23'11" South of the centerline of State Line Road. The monument is 7'6" West of a tree that is 3'2" in circumference.
