I recovered this Oregon State Highway Division BM in good condition. It is a brass disk monumented on top of a concrete sidewalk, flush with the ground and on the west side of SW Hall Blvd as part of a small bridge that spans Ash Creek. The disk is about 12 inches west of the curb edge to the street. The disk contains the stamping 'W.C.36' on the disk face. This disk is listed on a topography map as 'BM 170'. My posted coordinates will place you very close to this mark.
