Couple more slight corrections from my notes. I find fewer of these as time goes on......

WY, 9818->9853.

WY, 7875->Jackson BM. Benchmark is on summit but not shown on map.

WY, Mt Chevo->11423

WY, Blackhall Mtn->10980. There is a second benchmark near the 10979 BM that is a foot higher and stamped 10980. Both next to the lookout tower.

CO, 11412->11460.


Also a question, how did Squaw Mtn in CO end up at 11486' again? Despite the spot elevation and the 11480 contour at the tower, I leveled the middle contour higher in 2006(sight line came halfway up lookout). It was just a cheapo hand level so if someone using other equipment found different I wouldn't be too surprised.

other possibility is rock could have been blasted away to make room for the tower, thus lowering the elevation. That has happened before on lookout tower summits such as Wylies in Idaho:

Thanks Tim

For Squaw, I'm going by images I've taken from other peaks and the south contour is the only location shown with as many contours (though the map could definitely be wrong). The lookout is highlighted in yellow (note height relative to the horizon). It probably deserves a repeat from me with a water/sight level.

Forgot about this one....was out there for Clause Peak this summer and got a look from a distance, pillar on top, possibly technical.

8160->8180

Couple more from my WY notebook....

Belle BM->Map is wrong, it's actually 5020. Contours and Datasheet agree.

7340->get usurped by 7380 to the south, P=320:

Updated. I retained the entry for Belle Benchmark (as P=207) as a placemark to show that the error has been documented.
