This NGS triangulation station is located in Mohave County, Arizona, at coordinates 36.34451° N, 112.74884° W. As a trig point within the National Geodetic Survey network, it serves as a fundamental control station for establishing accurate horizontal positions across the United States' geodetic framework. Triangulation stations of this type historically formed the backbone of precise surveying and mapping operations, providing reference points for secondary surveys and cadastral work. The station's location in the Arizona region contributes to the broader NGS network coverage essential for regional surveying projects, GPS modernization efforts, and maintaining national spatial data accuracy. Verification and documentation of such benchmarks remain valuable for surveyors requiring high-precision reference points and for understanding the historical development of the nation's geodetic infrastructure. Professional users should consult current NGS databases for detailed condition reports and recovery information.
