Slide 2 1970 Benchmark - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

This is a fairly new benchmark, so I'm not sure why it was removed from the USGS database. Maybe it's because it is located next to a US Forest Service fire lookout tower that was out of service for many years (but was recently refurbished and is occupied by volunteers during fire season.) The trail up the the lookout tower (and this benchmark) wasn't maintained either, but volunteers have changed that, too.

This waymark is hard to miss. It's very close to the lookout tower and it shares space with the Sierra Club Peak Register for Slide Mountain.

The Geocache on Slide Mountain has had only six hits in five years, so not a lot of folks get up here. I don't know why. It's a fine hike and the views are great.

To log your own find, post your own photo of the waymark along with some comments. Logs must have a photo or they will be deleted. Thanks.

1. A closeup photo of the mark taken by you is required.
2. A 'distant' photo including the mark in the view is highly recommended. Include the compass direction you faced when you took the picture.
