I recovered this Oregon State Highway Division benchmark after spotting it when driving over the bridge that spans the Williamson River along Modoc Point Rd. This benchmark has no stamping on its face but it's most likely from the last decade since this is one of many bridges throughout Oregon that were redone under the Oregon Bridge Renewal Project that began almost ten years ago. I've recovered many other benchmarks just like this one from OSHD on bridges from the Bridge Renewal Project.

My posted coordinates will put you exactly at this benchmark location in the NW corner of the bridge.
