Triangulation Station GYPSUM is a short walk from the side of Las Vegas Boulevard. It is near geocache GC9BKH4 Log This Benchmark - GYPSUM so you can follow your geo app to the mark. The mark is set in a rocky outcrop; it is stamped with the designation GYPSUM and the year 1957. I did not look for the reference marks but they are probably there as well.
