CRAZY ! - NC/SC Border at US 17 - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

Fortunately for me I decided to look for this mark (which is not in the Geocaching database) on an early morning drive in November.

Here is the official description in the official datasheet in the NGS (National Geodetic Survey) database:

Seriously, excercise caution if you're crazy enough to look for this one!
