An easy drive by benchmark at a busy crossroads. There is a large pullout adjacent to the benchmark and another object that I had intended to Waymark, but didn't.

This easy drive up benchmark is a smallish disk stuck in a short pipe and cemented in the ground. It has been recently spray painted red for easy identification. I can't imagine an easier benchmark than this to find.

FTF Prize: I originally came out to this spot to log another object. After recent talks on our local Forum, I decided to give someone else a chance to create the Waymark for this obvious feature. The object I came out for is directly in front of the benchmark and should be fairly obvious. Take a picture of it, and if you have any difficulties trying to locate the Category that it goes in (which I doubt you will), feel free to email me through my Profile and I'd be happy to direct you to the right Category to list it.
