This geodetic benchmark is a triangulation (trig) station within the National Geodetic Survey network, which establishes the precise horizontal and vertical control framework essential for mapping, surveying, and engineering projects across the United States. Located in Park County, Wyoming at coordinates 44.90539° N, 110.11644° W, this point serves as a fundamental reference for positional accuracy in the region. Trig stations of this type historically provided intervisible control points for classical triangulation networks. Modern surveyors and geodetic professionals rely on documented benchmark locations to verify instrument calibration, establish local coordinate systems, and maintain spatial data integrity. The recovery and verification of such points remains valuable for quality assurance in contemporary surveying work, particularly in areas where legacy control networks support ongoing land management and infrastructure development.
