Just a P.S. to my above story. Last weekend family members were vacationing at my wife's family ranch and found a human skeleton. It was uncovered whe...
Working north of Lakeview Or. on a cadastral survey. On a walk back to the truck we came across an old down homestead house. We took a few minutes to ...
Sorry about taking so long to reply. I have been a proud Oregonian for 61 years. Protecting OUR rivers is one of OUR greatest responsibilities. If I w...
First, I would haul a saw up to the tree at 99 ft., ori. is 100 lks. and make SURE, scribing, its an original BT. The hack mks. could be from the 1900...
Sound like a brass cap we were looking for while surveying the Redwood National Park. We had looked for about a 1/2 hour when one of the crew found it...
I have to wonder if the blm or fs leased this ground for cattle grazing. In the west there is open range, which means you have to fence blm, fs lease ...
The high desert has a lot of surprises. My farther-in-law would tell the story of a WW-2 tank that broke thorough a laval tube east of Horse ridge. Al...

Once you find a scribe like Bear Bait make sure the teeth are SHARP. Scribing with a dull scribe makes a mess out of your face and is a sure sign of a...
Something I should have said to begin with. Call the BLM State office and ask their opinion of how to establish this CN 1/16. They will even put it in...
