This is a triangulation station (trig point) within the NGS network, positioned at 41.16499° north latitude and 107.47610° west longitude in Carbon County, Wyoming. Triangulation stations form the backbone of the National Geodetic Survey's horizontal control network, established to provide accurate positional references for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects across the United States. These monuments serve as fixed ground points from which surveyors and geodesists measure distances and angles to establish precise coordinate systems. Located in the Rocky Mountain region, this benchmark contributes to the regional geodetic framework. Verification and documentation of such control points remain essential for maintaining the integrity of the national spatial reference system and ensuring consistency in surveying operations. Current elevation data for this station is not recorded in available documentation. Surveyors and professionals utilizing this reference point should verify its current condition and recovery status through the official NGS database.
