+Harry Dolphin Posted April 3, 2006 Posted April 3, 2006 (edited) John and Shirley got to visit Zion, and I got to hike along the Palisades. Fair trade. Stvanme has benchmarks labelled 'BM'! I'm impressed. Here's what Andy Bear and I did today, with help from Borress: KU3890 / 1898 / N / Y (Nearest oldest benchmark around) KU1645 / 1956 / N / N KU3879 / 1930 / Y / N KU4057 / 1921 / N / N KU4055 / 1930 / N / N KU4046 / 1933 / N / N Hopefully, that should put in the lead, temporarily, aat least. I took my 'oldest' bonus early. Edited April 3, 2006 by Harry Dolphin
