I recovered this U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service 1/16 section corner from 1987 in good condition. This 1/16 section corner divides sections 4 and 9. It is a 3" aluminum cap mounted on a galvanized iron pipe rising 1 foot above the ground, with a small cairn of lava rock around the pipe's base. There are three Property Boundary signs and a Land Survey Monument sign placed triangularly around the cap and pipe.
