It is here that one will encounter the first of several switchbacks required to get down to the Okanagan Valley from high atop Anarchist Mountain. 30 metres or so north of this switchback are several boulders, one of which bears 79C435. The coordinates given here should lead the intrepid Benchmark Hunter to the correct boulder, possibly assisted by the accompanying photos.
