I was 5.96 miles away from the airport when I discovered this survey disk.
What do you do when you have a 3 hour, 7 mile walk to the airport in the middle of the night from 11:30 PM to 2:30 AM? Why look for and collect benchmarks of course, and what a collection I found! I hit the mother load. It seemed every 1/2 mile or so I struck paydirt. Most of the benchmarks in this series (including this one) are along the sidewalk, on the west bound (south side) side of this road which leads to the airport. This one is in the middle of the walkway. There were a few along some various small bridges, and one or two in the curb.
