While the triangulation station on the Kansas side of the road has likely been destroyed (given the pieces of concrete that I found around the area where the station should have been), RM 3 and RM 4 on the Oklahoma side of the road remain in good condition. RM 3 is set in the top of a round concrete monument that is flush with the ground and sits about 5 feet to the west of a tree.
Condition: Mark found in good condition
