AA3538 - NGS 'N 547 RESET' - Klamath County, OR - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this National Geodetic Survey Vertical Control Mark from 1993 in good condition. It is a RESET benchmark from an original benchmark that was destroyed when the nearby railroad overpass was rebuilt in 1993. There is an orange carsonite witness post about two feet north of the station. The station is monumented in a round concrete post and flush with the surface. The NGS datasheet info is adequate for station recovery and my posted coordinates will place you very close to this station.
