NY0547 - USC&GS 'D 352' BM - Klamath County, OR - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey benchmark from 1943 in good condition. The datasheet info is mostly obsolete. The Chiloquin railroad station no longer exists and neither does the original wooden witness post and the blazed pine tree. The fence line mentioned in the datasheet has been moved closer to the road, so the benchmark resides just a foot north of the fence line. This benchmark is also listed on a topography map as 'BM 4264'. My posted coordinates should place you very close to this mark.
