This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes the fundamental geodetic framework for the United States. Trig stations serve as primary control points for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects across regional areas. Located in Elbert County, Colorado at coordinates 39.31000°N, 104.56306°W, this point contributes to the horizontal control network essential for accurate positioning work. Triangulation stations were traditionally intervisible monumented points used to extend precise positional control through geometric measurement. As part of the national geodetic infrastructure, this benchmark supports land surveys, infrastructure development, and scientific applications requiring reliable reference coordinates. Verification and documentation of such control points remain valuable for confirming network integrity and enabling future surveying operations. Professional surveyors depend on accurate location and stability records of established benchmarks for maintaining consistency in regional survey work.
