MW0495 - USCGS 'TENNANT AZ' Azimuth Mark - Siskiyou County, CA - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey Azimuth Mark from 1948 in good condition. It is monumented on top of a lava rock boulder as part of a rocky outcrop east of Tennant-Mt Hebron Rd. This AZ mark is part of the 'Tennant' series of survey marks (PID# MW0491). The NGS coordinates are adequate for station recovery.
