This triangulation station is part of the National Geodetic Survey's network, which establishes the fundamental geometric framework for surveying and mapping throughout the United States. As a trig point, this benchmark served as a horizontal control station, providing precise positional reference for large-scale surveys and related geodetic work. Located in Coconino County, Arizona, at coordinates 36.21367° N, 112.50068° W, this point contributed to regional survey networks and helped establish the spatial relationships between other control points across the landscape. Triangulation stations of this class were typically established on elevated terrain to maximize intervisibility with distant points, facilitating measurement chains across broad areas. Documentation and verification of such benchmarks remain valuable for surveyors, engineers, and cartographers who rely on established control networks. Modern surveys often reference historical NGS points to maintain consistency with prior work and ensure continuity in spatial data collection activities.
