Set by Monroe County in 1997, this disk sits just off a corner on County Highway U. The bend is found on the stretch between Norwalk and the intersection between U and County Highway A. This disk is well marked just South of a right turn sign and marked with three orange witness posts. The disk is in great shape. Park on the shoulder and watch out for cars.
