KS0285 - BOR 'L 837' BM - Tahoe City, CA - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this U.S. Bureau of Reclamation BM in good condition. Although there is no monumentation stamping on the disk, my guess it is from the 1920s based off the color and type I've recovered in the past. The designation stamping is legible even though the disk has been scuffed up. The gaging station mentioned in the datasheet nearby is now gone as well as the corrugated metal building and witness post.

From the NGS datasheet:
