There is little remaining of Speer other than this triangulation station, which is on the west side of an unimproved country road a bit north of Highway 412. The disk is stamped SPEER and datd 1970. There is a witness post so it is not difficult to find. I did search for both reference marks and for the azimuth mark but did not find them.
