The former Forest Service Bend Pine Nursery originally covered more than 300 acres. Most of that land has passed into the ownership of the Bend Parks and Recreation District while the Forest Service retained approximately 25 acres around the former Nursery buildings. The survey cap is set on a buried pipe at the SE corner of the 25 acres retained by the Forest Service. The cap was marked R/W and was set by LS 53270 for the Forest Service.

UPDATE 7/14/11 -- This 40 foot right of way marker has been buried (or destroyed) by a 6 foot deep fill resulting from the construction work related to the new Forest Service & Fish and Wildlife office on the portion of the old Nursery retained by the Forest Service. A new 60 foot right of way marker has been placed near by. (WMC1XF)
