Claim:
1. A method of erecting a two-part snap-back marker post comprising: positioning a first end of a solid freestanding resilient member in an upright condition and directly engaging a soil surface located below a top soil line; positioning a first end of a hollow resilient member on the soil surface with the hollow resilient member located in an upright condition around the a solid freestanding resilient member with an interior surface of the hollow resilient member detached from the solid freestanding resilient member to allow the solid freestanding resilient member to sit freely therein; directly resting a second end of the solid freestanding resilient member laterally against the interior surface of the hollow resilient member while being gravitationally held in the hollow interior of the elongated hollow resilient member; and securing the first end of the hollow resilient member in a support surface located between the top soil line and the soil surface to thereby hold the hollow resilient member in an upright condition while a second end of the hollow resilient member and the second end of the solid freestanding resilient member located therein extends above the top soil line with at least a portion of the solid freestanding resilient member and the hollow resilient member coextensive with each other in a bend region of the hollow resilient member.
