Found a disk stamped "AZ MARK" (no station number) on a large stone inside the cave approx. 100 feet west of the locked door where there is a bronze disk of "C 001A" stamped by US Department of Interior on the block wall beside this door. This AZ MARK disk installed by "US Geological Survey Benchmark." It is at the northeast termination of Frozen Niagara Road in west side of loop private drive in Barren County, KY, in the Mammoth Cave National Park property.
I found there are five USGCS benchmarks (Four are stamped "AZ MARK" and one is stamped "TT 27 W" inside the cave.
