Ed Otto, Crossroads Preservation Officer, uses a handheld GPS unit to record the position of this marker. GPS promises to significantly improve our ability to map the trails and locate cultural resources and monuments.

Stainless steel plaques have been prepared with brief histories of the trail in the area of each marker. They are riveted to the crosswise piece of rail and are expected to be both informative and resistant to vandalism.
