I recovered this Oregon State Highway Department BM in good condition. It is a brass disk monumented on top of the south part of a concrete culvert spanning an irrigation canal on the east side of Galls Creek Rd, flush with the surface. There is a metal witness post next to the BM. This station does not exist in the NGS database. My posted coordinates will place you very close to this mark.
