Disc is appx 4 feet from the bridge edge, 4 feet from road edge, and equidistant from either end of the span. I did not have any measuring tools, and I forgot that the GPSr would do DR tracking for distance, so I will estimate about 100 ft from the bridge ends.

This disc is very close to Geocaches GCTDG8 and GCH2EX
