Your Directions:
The following new description is based upon my visit to the station on April 5, 2009. Note that US15-501 has been relocated. The old highway has been renamed "Walter Bright Road". THE AZIMUTH MARK WAS RECOVERED IN GOOD CONDITION. THE REFERENCED PINE TREE HAS BEEN CUT DOWN, BUT THE STUMP REMAINS. NO WITNESS POST. THE AZIMUTH MARK IS 127 FEET (WHEEL DISTANCE ALONG ROAD) FROM THE CENTER OF THE INTERSECTION OF WALTER BRIGHT RD (SR2127) AND WADE BRIGHT RD (SR2152), AND 28.2 FEET EAST OF THE CENTERLINE OF WALTER BRIGHT RD, AT A WIDE BREAK IN THE FENCE LINE. THE AZ MK IS 33.6 FEET NNW OF THE CORNER OF A FENCE LINE RUNNING SOUTH, AND 10.2 FEET SSW OF THE CORNER OF A FENCE LINE RUNNING NORTH. THE TOP OF THE MONUMENT PROJECTS 1 INCH ABOVE GROUND.
