From 1961 monument description: TURN LEFT AND GO 0.25 MILE NORTHEAST ON A GRAVELED ROAD TO MR. COLLIS H. WILD RESIDENCE. THE AZIMUTH MARK IS 58.8 FT. SOUTHEAST OF THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF HIS HOUSE, 14 FT. NORTHWEST OF THE CENTER OF THE ROAD, 1.7 FT. NORTHEAST OF A WITNESS SIGN, AND 1.3 FT. WEST OF POWER LINE POLE 6. THE DISK IS SET IN TOP OF A CONCRETE POST PROJECTING 6 INCHES AND IS ABOUT LEVEL WITH THE ROAD.

Corrections: BM A98 is missing due to I-81 construction. Graveled road is now a paved dead end. Found with witness sign in a rose bush. Power pole #6 has been moved NE, but still has the same number.
Azimuth Condition: Marked/Scarred

Your Directions:
At I-81 Exit 59, head SE on Fort Henry Road for very short distance (<0.1 mile), turn North on Shipley Ferry Road East. Drive to bright blue painted house. (Best parking is back a couple of houses). Azimuth mark is in the rose bush in front corner of property.
