 GT1831.The horizontal coordinates were established by classical geodetic methods
 GT1831.and adjusted by the National Geodetic Survey in March 1994.
 GT1831.The horizontal coordinates are valid at the epoch date displayed above.
 GT1831.The epoch date for horizontal control is a decimal equivalence
 GT1831.of Year/Month/Day.
 GT1831
 GT1831.The NAVD 88 height was computed by applying the VERTCON shift value to
 GT1831.the NGVD 29 height (displayed under SUPERSEDED SURVEY CONTROL.)
 GT1831
 GT1831.The Laplace correction was computed from DEFLEC99 derived deflections.
 GT1831
 GT1831.The geoid height was determined by GEOID99.

 GT1831
 GT1831'DESCRIBED BY COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY 1962 (JCC)
 GT1831'THE STATION IS ON THE HIGHEST POINT OF KERN PEAK WITH AN ELEVATION
 GT1831'OF 11,493 FEET.  IT IS A HIGH, ROCKY, BARE PEAK, ABOUT 24 MILES
 GT1831'SOUTHEAST OF LONE PINE, 16 MILES WEST-NORTHWEST OF OLANCHA, 4-1/2
 GT1831'MILES SOUTH OF THE TUNNEL GUARD STATION AND 5 MILES SOUTH OF
 GT1831'THE TUNNEL MEADOW LANDING STRIP.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'THIS STATION WAS REACHED BY AIRPLANE AND HORSES.  MR. BOB WHITE
 GT1831'OF LONE PINE, WHITES FLYING SERVICE, FURNISHED THE PLANE AND
 GT1831'HORSES.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'TO REACH FROM THE TUNNEL MEADOW LANDING STRIP BY HORSE TRAVEL,
 GT1831'FOLLOW THE TRAIL SOUTH FOR ABOUT 2 MILES TO THE TUNNEL GUARD
 GT1831'STATION.  HERE FOLLOW THE KERN PEAK TRAIL FOR ABOUT 4 MILES
 GT1831'TO THE HIGHEST POINT AND STATION AT THE KERN PEAK LOOKOUT
 GT1831'HOUSE.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'THE STATION MARK IS A U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY DISK, UNSTAMPED,

 GT1831'FOOT BOULDER PROJECTING 8 FEET.  IT IS 8 FEET SOUTH OF THE
 GT1831'SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE LOOKOUT HOUSE AND 4 FEET LOWER THAN
 GT1831'THE STATION.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'R.M. 2 IS A U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY DISK, STAMPED G 11493,
 GT1831'CEMENTED IN A DRILL HOLE IN A 4 X 8 FOOT BOULDER PROJECTING 4
 GT1831'FEET.  IT IS 10 FEET EAST-NORTHEAST OF THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF
 GT1831'THE LOOKOUT HOUSE AND ABOUT 2 FEET HIGHER THAN THE STATION.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'AZIMUTH MARK IS A STANDARD DISK, STAMPED KERN USGS 1962,
 GT1831'CEMENTED IN A DRILL HOLE IN ROCK OUTCROP FLUSH WITH THE GROUND.
 GT1831'IT IS 75 FEET NORTHEAST OF A PINE IN A SMALL SADDLE, 3 FEET
 GT1831'SOUTHWEST OF A 3 FOOT CAIRN AND 150 YARDS SOUTHEAST AND 200
 GT1831'FEET HIGHER THAN THE TRAIL.
 GT1831'
 GT1831'TO REACH THE AZIMUTH MARK FROM THE STATION.  GO NORTHERLY,
 GT1831'DOWN ALONG RIDGE FOR ABOUT 0.5 MILE TO A SMALL SADDLE.  CONTINUE
 GT1831'AHEAD TO THE TOP OF THE NEXT KNOLL AND THE AZIMUTH MARK.
