Benchmark is in a concrete post protruding about six inches above ground level. It is in reasonably good condition but the markings are difficult to read from the photo. Benchmark is on a fairly well used, but casual, path not far from the Canyon View Loop in Towsley Canyon Park. Most of the trek is on the excellent Loop trail. Park just off The Old Road, near the Calgrove exit of Golden State Freeway. Wider angle picture shows location of a cache I placed the same day as finding this benchmark. This view is looking north.
