Unearthing a Bear!
Finally located a benchmark I’ve been searching for. This one is named BEAR. It’s been a real bear locating that’s for sure! I’ve been out here in the dunes looking for it a couple of times with no luck. Got some help recently from fellow geocacher Mackie when he found the metal post marking the benchmark location. The benchmark itself, however, was below the surface and Mackie didn’t come prepared with digging tools so he marked the area and told me what he found.
Went out today with a shovel and uncovered it. These old benchmarks are fun to discover - this one was established in 1928 and hadn’t been located since 1970!
