This triangulation station is part of the NGS network, which establishes the primary geodetic framework for the United States. Trig stations serve as control points for surveying, mapping, and engineering projects across the country by providing precisely determined horizontal positions. Located in Park County, Wyoming, this benchmark is positioned at 44.39028° N, 110.06958° W. As a trig point, it likely served historical and ongoing surveying campaigns requiring accurate spatial reference. Verification and documentation of such control points remain valuable to surveying professionals, as these stations anchor local surveys and support infrastructure development. Even where elevation data has not been recorded, the horizontal coordinates provide essential positional reference. Maintaining comprehensive geodetic networks ensures continuity and reliability for navigation, land surveying, and cadastral applications across the region and beyond.
