Delamere 30300 - Canadian Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

From Sudbury, Ontario, drive south on Hwy. 69 to Hwy. 64. Turn east on Hwy. 64 and drive just past the town of Alban, Ontario. Turn north off Hwy. 64 on to Turenne Rd. and park out of the way at the gate near N 46 07.099 W 80 35.513.

NOTE: According to some local camp and campsite operators, the gate has not been closed since the Forestry Service tower was dismantled, and the hill is a destination for sightseeing visitors. The day I visited, the gate was closed but had been heavily "bypassed". It's your call!

The marker tab is now a stud (similar to a commercial GPS antenna mount stud).
