I was searching for the benchmark named CG AIR 1 as I crossed the cattleguard into the Casa Grande Municipal Airport, and noticed that there is a mark in the South abutment of the cattleguard. When I parked the car, I discovered that there are two marks located one on the south abutment, and the other located on the northern one (see pictures).
