There is a Trig station on the hill in the background, back in the day I used it quite a bit, the drive up was pretty wild in the Bronco. The task here was to tie a section corner under the little stock pond:

The section corner, it's part of a GLO completion survey:

Then it was over to the 1/4 to the east, which is a limestone 20x12x12 record, 16x10x9 found:

the barest hint of a mark, nothing that jumps out.

Spent too much time looking for my hammer after setting a new brass cap at an old monument, my senior moment for the day,,,,well one of them:

Fires northwest make it smoky in the afternoon:

Those of us in pancake land would never call that thing a hill. Something a third that size would be a big one.

I remember how much fun I had setting the center of section; when I worked in Nebraska:

  • Set on the east 1/4 corner; sight the west 1/4 corner and set straddles.
  • Set on the south 1/4 corner; sight the north 1/4 corner; complete the straddles and chain everything on line. Call it a day...

Circa 1976
