I found this survey marker while hiking on the Appalachian Trail in Holmes, NY on Saturday, September 6, 2008. Unfortunately, I cannot find it in the database.

It is a round survey marker stamped with the “AT” logo and the alphanumeric combination 270-NY -25A (with the last "A" really looking like a combined "AT").

Its approximate coordinates are N 41 33.285 W 73 42.192. These are not exact, as my husband had the GPS today (drat!). I went on Topo, picked the approximate location where I found this, and chose those coordinates.

It would be interesting to see if anyone else finds this one.
