| no partners | | I decided to have a look at the Cliff BM. The road to get there is a bit rough, and the Matt high point is in somebody's front yard, so I skipped that point and headed out to the find the survey disks. And it is for sure a cliff! About 400 feet absolutely vertical. This results in some nice views!
I only found one reference mark, and it had been re-stamped to point to a tiny coin-sized benchmark, which I presume is a replacement for the original disk that no longer exists. Huh.
The geology out here is 90 180 270 360 and all other angles from other spots I'd visited. It resembled a barren lava field of exposed, unvegitated rock. I'll have to read up on the the how and why of the unique landscape on this escarpment. A cool area. Lots of aspen, and a few more deer encountered. |
