14U554 - Perry Twp, ON - Canadian Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

A Geodetic Survey of Canada Marker from 1914 mounted in a cube of concrete along the old OA&PS railway. This abandoned railway is now the Park to Park (Seguin) trail. Surprisingly, this monument was difficult to spot in the bush. I have visited this site before and missed it even thought it has a witness marker showing its location. The concrete cube is completely covered in moss except for a few spots and the bolt was one of them. The monument is still in excellent shape even though it has sat patiently in the woods for 106 years as of today.

Access

I parked on the widened shoulder of Old Track Road at N45° 28.887 W079° 20.783 and started my hike. The hike in is a very short 660 m down the very easily traversed trail.

When you reach this private crossing, the monument is just to the north east located on the railway right of way.
