This is at the old bridge site on old Highway 6, west of the present Highway 6. To get to it, take Callbeck Road at N 49 21.95 W 117 14.749 and follow it to the bridge site. The pix and description will help with finding the BM which is on the wing wall, southeast corner of the bridge abutment. Don't come down Callbeck Road from the north unless you want to walk across the creek as there ain't no bridge there no mo.
