This gray metal marker is embedded in concrete a short walk around some boulders on the northbound side of Highway 87. There is a white witness post next to the marker. It is not apparent from the highway due to the boulders. Across the top of the maker is stamped A.D.O.T. Highway Div. At the bottom is the number 19. Nothing else is stamped on the marker. It is located approximately 205 feet east of the guardrail at an angle of 82 degrees. The easiest approach is from the southern end of the guard rail travelling 225 feet at an angle of 21 degrees to avoid the boulders.
