This U.S. Engineer Office survey mark (designated 906 3020 25) is set flush in the top of a rock retaining wall that runs along the paved path and the Buffalo River on the way to the Buffalo Main Lighthouse. It is safely accessed/visible without climbing on top of the rocks - so please stay off the rocks as falling off the other side will be a 20 or so foot drop into the river.
