AJ1852 - NGS 'COTD GRM' CORS - College of the Desert - Palm Desert, CA - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this National Geodetic Survey Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) from 2001 in good condition. It is located on the College of the Desert campus and east of the Donald H. Mitchell Library. It is not part of the Geocaching.com database. My posted coordinates will place you very close to this mark.
