The station mark is located to the south of a westward-bound driveway (which was once a field road, as described in the 1957 monumentation description). It is set in a square concrete post that projects about an inch above the ground and is about 1 foot west of a fiberglass witness post. I was not able to find RM1 or RM2 on my last visit here due to the thick summer overgrowth.
