I recovered this U. S. Geological Survey pipe cap from 1908 in good condition, although it's been slightly tilted to one side, most likely from a vehicle. It's located within the Lily Glen Equestrian Park. The pipe cap contains the elevation stamping of '4538.264'. This pipe cap is also listed on a topography map as 'BM 4539'. The posted coordinates and datasheet description are adequate for recovery with the exception of the last line in the 1984 log which references a different BM.
