DESCRIBED BY NATIONAL GEODETIC SURVEY 1985 IN GEORGETOWN. IN GEORGETOWN, 0.3 KM (0.25 MI) EAST ALONG STATE HIGHWAY 107 FROM THE JUNCTION OF U.S. HIGHWAY 7 TO THE MARK ON THE RIGHT, IN THE SOUTHWEST WINGWALL OF A BRIDGE OVER THE RAILROAD, 5.9 METERS (19.5 FT) SOUTH OF THE CENTERLINE OF THE HIGHWAY. THE MARK IS ABOVE LEVEL WITH HIGHWAY.
This mark is easy to find as described, but vehicle parking may be tricky as this is a busy stretch of road. Best parking is just west before the bridge, where there is some shoulder.
This mark is listed both here and in the Geocaching site as well. Please consider logging in both sites when you find it. Thank you.
