From the Sisters Ranger Station, travel generally NW on US20 for 5.4 miles to the intersection with Green Ridge Road, FR11. Turn right on FR11 and continue for about 5.8 miles. Turn left on FR1130 and continue about 3.5 miles to the intersection with FR1130-850. Turn left and continue on FR1130-850 about 0.3 miles. Bear right, then left after only about 140'. Continue on the unmarked road, which is soon coincident with the Metolius-Windigo Trail, about 0.6 miles to the corner on the left.
Type of survey mark: 2-1/2" brass cap on steel pipe in mound of stones
What indicators are near the mark to help people identify where it is located?: The corner is just W of the unmarked road. There is a LAND SURVEY MARKER decal affixed to a U-post and a partly scorched ATTENTION sign mounted on a Carsonite witness post, aslant in a rubble pile. Found three ponderosa pines, two with healed blazes and the other an original bearing tree with a chopped blaze. All have yellow BEARING TREE tags and ATTENTION signs on the reverse sides.
The unmarked road served to contain the recent Green Ridge Fire. Apparently the disturbed corner was reset in August 2013 when yellow tags on the two more distant bearing trees were replaced.
What property is this mark defining?: Not listed
