Located just out of wash as you travel generally NE moving to high ground. The wash circumvents high ground located SW. On top of the high ground is an American Indian Ruin site. As you walk or drive on a 4x4 in the wash, keeping the Ruin site mountain parallel or on your left, keep moving for approximately 1.1 KM, when the wash begins to bend West, take note and look for rocks painted with grey directional arrows marked as a running/hiking trail, this will indicate you've taken the correct wash and are in the vicinity of the BM. Soon past the first grey arrow you'll see a split wash, one leading NE and one moving NW. Stop, get out of the wash on the high ground N and travel for approximately 25 meters, there you'll find the BM.
