Very visible from the road, this benchmark is surrounded by four poles at the side of a dirt service road. The witness post is fiberglass orange. There are also two white and one metal pole close by. The benchmark is just Southeast of Hwy 21 just south of County Road BB. You can drive right up to it on a dirt service road at the coordinates and park there. Look for the four poles and you will find the orange witness pole. The benchmark itself is in great condition.
