RESULTS OFTRIANGULATIONAND PRIMARY TRAVERSE 

FOR THE TEARS 1911 AND 1912.

R. B. MARSHALL, Chief Geographer.

INTRODUCTION.

PEESONNEL.

Field work The field work of primary control, the computed 

results of which are given in the following pages, was carried on in 

1911 under E. B. Marshall, chief geographer, with Frank Sutton, 

W. H. Herron, Sledge Tatum, and T. G. Gerdine, geographers, in 

charge, respectively, of the Atlantic, Central, Rocky Mountain, and 

Pacific divisions, and in 1912 under the same division chiefs, except 

that George R. Davis was in charge of the Pacific division and T. G. 

Gerdine in charge of the Northwestern division.

Credit is given to the various topographers, assistant topographers, 

and aids directly in charge under the headings of the several lists.

'Computation. The office computation was under the supervision 

of E. M. Douglas, geographer. The results were computed by the 

following members of the topographic branch detailed from time to 

time to this work: D. H. Baldwin, L. F. Biggs, R. H. Chapman, J. R. 

Ellis, G. T. Hawkins, C. B. Kendall, L. S. Leopold, F. J. McMaugh, 

P. W. McMillen, E. L. McNair, Roscoe Reeves, A. C. Roberts, C. F. 

Urquhart, and J. H. Wilson. Mr. Urquhart did all his computing in 

the Sacramento office. The data were compiled for publication by 

S. S. Gannett, geographer.

DATUM.

Wherever practicable, and unless otherwise stated, positions have 

been computed on United States standard datum.1

STATION MARKS.

Permanent marks are placed at all occupied triangulation stations 

and at certain of the primary traverse stations, from 3 to 8 miles apart.

These marks are of the form adopted for leveling bench marks, and 

in many places the elevation as well as the latitude and longitude has

i Now known as the North American datum.
10 TEIAFGULATION AND PRIMARY TRAVERSE, 1911 AND 1912.

been'determined. The marks are of two forms. The first form is a 

circular bronze or aluminum tablet (C and E, PI. II), 3£ inches in 

diameter and \ inch thick, having a 3-inch stem, which is cemented 

in a drill hole in solid rock in the wall of some public building, bridge 

abutment, or other substantial masonry structures. The second form 

(F} PI. II), set in the ground where no masonry or rock is available, 

consists of a hollow wrought-iron post 3£ inches in outside diameter 

and 4 feet long. The bottom is spread out to a width of 10 inches in 

order to give a firm bearing on the earth. A bronze or aluminumbronze cap is riveted over the top of the post. The tablets, as well as 

the caps on the iron posts, are appropriately lettered, and where States 

have cooperated in the work the fact of such cooperation is indicated 

by the addition of the State name (G, PI. II). .

PRIMARY TRAVERSE.

Belgreen, Chickasaw, Cottondale, Double Springs, Fayette, Glen Alien, Gordo, Guin,

BIBB, FAYETTE, FRANKLIN, GREENE, HALE, LAMAR, LAWRENCE, MARION, PICKENS, 

TUSCALOOSA, WALKER, AND WINSTON COUNTIES.

The following geographic positions were determined from primary 

traverse by C. B. Kendall, assistant topographer, in 1911.

The line begins with adjusted position at Russellville and follows 

the Northern Alabama, Railway to a point 1.5 miles south of Nauvoo, 

thence along public roads to Carbon Hill, thence along the St. Louis, 

San Francisco &_ Texas Railway west to Glen Alien, thence south 

along public roads via Fayette, Newtonville, Moores Bridge, and May 

to Buhl, at the northwest corner of the Tuscaloosa quadrangle, thence 

along the Mobile & Ohio Railroad to Tuscaloosa, and is tied to" the 

Tuscaloosa astronomic pier (Gannett) and through primary traverse 

along the Alabama Great Southern Railroad, run by S. S. Gannett in 

1895, and along roads by F. W. Crisp in 1912, is tied to adjusted position of road crossing at McCalla (Kendall), which is based on triangulation in the vicinity of Birmingham.

For control of the Tuscaloosa quadrangle the line begins at Northport and follows public roads northeast to a point on the north side 

of Warrior River about 2 miles north of Holt, thence south through 

fields and roads to Holt station, thence south along the Warrior 

Southern Railroad to Alberta, where it is joined by a line east along 

the pike from the Tuscaloosa astronomic pier.

From Alberta the line follows public roads south via Fanelle, 0.75 

miles east of, and Griffin to Loveless schoolhouse, thence west along 

public roads via Moundville to Lock No. 9, thence north-northeast 

via Ralph, Pattens Mill, and Fosters Ferry bridge to Tuscaloosa. A 

line begins at IPattens Mill and follows public roads via Romulus to 

Buhl; also one beginning at Moundville follows the Alabama Great 

Southern Railroad to Tuscaloosa. A few positions in Samantha and 

Cottondale quadrangles were determined by F. W. Crisp in 1912 and 

a few in Cottondale and Tuscaloosa quadrangles by S. S. Gannett in 

1895.

The following geodetic positions result from primary triangulation 

by the United States Geological Survey. Three stations, Line and 

Burro, in New Mexico, and Graham, in Arizona, of this scheme, were 

occupied by the Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1910-11, from which 

connection the azimuths and distances and the positions based upon 

United States standard datum1 have been computed. The previous 

values for the older portion of this scheme as computed from the 

Maricopa base in Arizona are also given for comparison. Bayard

During the season of 1912 C. PL Birdseye extended triangulation 

from Territorial Survey stations Alala and Halai, connection with 

which was made by the Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1912. The 

positions are on Hawaiian datum.

The angles were measured with Coast and Geodetic Survey 4-inch 

theodolite No. 200, reading by two verniers to one minute of arc. 

Each angle was repeated six times with 'telescope direct and six 

times with telescope reversed and comparatively small closure errors 

of triangles obtained.

ALALA, HAWAII COUNTY, HAWAII.

A Territorial Survey station, the position for which was redetermined on Hawaiian 

datum by the Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1912. It is on the highest point of a hill, 

about 0.8 mile west of Pepekeo store, and 1,000 feet south of plantation stables. The 

station can be reached by driving to plantation stables, leaving Government road at 

Pepekeo store; from camp above stables take horse trail leading across gulch and 

through cane. A larger and higher hill lies about 2,000 feet southwest.

in 1909 and by Ellis and P. W. McMillen in 1911 and are based on 

Mississippi River Commission triangulation stations Grand Tower, 

Fountain Bluff, and Rich and on points near Eldorado previously 

located by primary traverse. Some of the positions in Alto Pass, 

Carbondale, Duquoin, Herrin, Marion, Murphysboro, Pinckneyville, 

and West Frankfort quadrangles were determined by L. E. Tucker 

in 1906. Those in the Eldorado quadrangle were determined by 

J. R. Ellis in 1903, and all results previous to 1911 are republished 

with corrections resulting from connections made by the work of 1911.

GHUNDY, KBNDALL, AND LASALLE COUNTIES.

The following geographic positions were determined by primary 

traverse in 1912 by E. L. McNair and are based upon Illinois River 

triangulation stations Bills Run, Stockdale, and Morris, and upon 

primary traverse run in 1911.

An error of plus 1.89" in latitude and plus 0.44" in longitude 

has been adjusted between Primary Traverse Station No. 4, 191 1, 

and Bills Run triangulation station. The error being excessive, 

the positions furnished are therefore preliminary only.

The following geographic positions were determined by primary 

traverse, run in 1911 by E. L. McNair, topographer. The line is 

based upon Wheal Kate triangulation station of the United States 

Lake Survey, near Houghton, Mich., and is tied to United States 

Lake Survey triangulation at Escanaba, Mich.

The line begins at Houghton, Mich., and follows a public highway 

to Mill Mine Junction, thence runs along the Copper Range Railroad 

to McKeever junction, thence along the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. 

Paul Railway to Sidnaw, thence along the Duluth, South Shore &
MICHIGAN WISCONSIN. 201

Atlantic Railway to "Trout Creek, thence across country through 

Calderwood to Watersmeet. From Watersmeet the Chicago & North 

Western Railway was followed to Escanaba, and a spur line was run 

from Iron Mountain to Channing along the Chicago, Milwaukee & 

St. Paul Railway, tying at the latter place to Hawkins's traverse of 

1891.

NEW YORK-CANADA. 

PRIMARY TRAVERSE.

Chateaugay, Churubusco, Malone, Mooers, Moira, and Rouses Point quadrangles. 

CLINTON, FRANKLIN, AND ST. LAWRENCE COUNTIES.

Positions, on United States standard datum,1 of international 

boundary monuments Nos. 646 to 774 inclusive, based on Coast and 

Geodetic Survey triangulation at foot of Lake Champlain, on United 

States Geological Survey triangulation station Upton (=monument 

No. 611), and^on monument No. 2=No. 773 located by triangulation of United States Lake Survey along St. Lawrence River, using 

distances and azimuths determined in 1902 and given in Report of 

Department of Interior of Canada, 1904, part 9.

Computing from monument No. 646 the closure at monument No. 

661 (Upton triangulation station) was 0.21" in latitude and 

+ 0.12" in longitude, this error was distributed arbitrarily according to distance from monument No. 646.

Accepting the position of monument No. 661 as located by United 

States Geological Survey triangulation, the closure at monument 

No. 773 as located by triangulation of the United States Lake Survey 

was +0. 15" in latitude and +0. 46" in longitude. This error was 

also distributed arbitrarily according to distance from monument 

No. 661.

Magnetic declination for south border of quadrangle, 22° 17' E.

Boring 15', Cazadero 30', Oregon City 15', Portland 15', and Reedville 15' quadrangles and southwest quarter of Troutdale SO7 quadrangle.

CLACKAMAS, COLUMBIA, MULTNOMAH, AND WASHINGTON COUNTIES.

The following geographic positions were determined by C. F.Urquhart and E. M. Bandli, in 1911, and are based on 1910 traverse by 

0. C. Kintner and Barnes triangulation station of the Coast and 

Geodetic Survey. The work by Urquhart was for the control of the 

Oregon City 15' quadrangle, and that by Bandli for the control of 

the northern border of the Boring 15' quadrangle and the south border of the southwest quarter of the Troutdale 30' quadrangle.

The closure at Primary Traverse Station No. 17, 1911, a point 

established by Urquhart earlier in the season, was good, but in tying 

in this station to Barnes station, the closure was excessive, being 

minus 1. 82'' in latitude and minus 2.87" in longitude. All of Urquhart's work is based on Kintner's and all closures on Kintner's line 

and Urquhart's own work were good. The error is probably in 

Kintner's line.

PIMPLE HILL, MONROE COUNTY, PA.

A Coast and Geodetic Survey station on Pimple Hill, 19 miles northwest of Wind 

Gap on the Bangor & Portland division, and 12 miles southwest of Mount Pocono on the 

main line of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad. The hill is on top of 

Pocono Mountain, about 0.5 mile west of the old Wilkes-Barre turnpike and 1£ miles 

north of the Pocono Mountain hotel. From this hotel the station bears N. 48° W. 

(mag.). Location is known to people of surrounding country. Approximate elevation, 2,225 feet.

Station mark: Drill hole in large stone near surface of ground. As the stone was 

firmly embedded, it was thought best riot to disturb it to place an underground mark. 

Letters "U. S." are cut on stone near hole. Above this is a monument surrounded 

by a large pile of stones, and on southeast side are cut the letters "U. S." and on 

northwest side "P. H." On top of monument is a drill hole centered over triangulation station.

During the season of 1911 C. F. Urquhart extended triangulation 

eastward from Coast and Geodetic Survey stations Beljica, Sharp 

Peak, and High Rock. Seven stations were occupied and. 11 points 

were located by intersections.

BELJICA, PIERCE COUNTY, WASH.

Station of Coast and Geodetic Survey, situated 10 or 12 miles west and a little south 

of Mount Eainier, on high rocky summit known as Bel Jacket, about 9.5 miles beyond 

Ashford, present terminus of the Tacoma Eastern Eailroad. Beached by wagon road 

from Ashford to Mr. Messier's place (5 miles), thence by trail northwest toward and 

beyond Bald Rock to top of wooded ridge, thence to right or east, thence to left under 

brow of Eagle Rock to a lake. From this lake summit is distant about 0.5 mile a 

little west of north. Trail passes east of lake, thence north about 100 yards, thence 

to left up a ravine to summit.

TRIANGULATION STATIONS.

 

Crawford and Sago quadrangles.

BRAXTON, LEWIS, RANDOLPH, AND UPSHUR COUNTIES.

The base of this scheme is the position for Bear and the distance 

Bear-Sugarloaf determined by previous triangulation of Sledge 

Tatum, of the U. S. Geological Survey, as published in Bulletin 216, 

and an observed azimuth in 1911 at Proudfoot. At Sugarloaf the 

stump of an old cleated tree was replaced by a stone with tablet in 

top. The new mark at Sugarloaf is computed to be 2 feet south of 

the position given in Bulletin 216 for the old signal. A check is
WEST VIRGINIA. 349

made upon old triangulation station Big Run No. 1, stump of cleated 

tree signal of L. C. Fletcher. The corrections to his scheme published in Bulletin 122 at that station are +0.28" to latitude, +0.28" 

to longitude, +0.00001 to logarithms of meters, and +40" to azimuth, the azimuth being computed for a line to Bear, a station used 

by both Fletcher and Tatum. The corrections to the position in 

Bulletin 122 at Bear are +0.31" to latitude and +0.00 to longitude, the discrepancy between the corrections at these stations 

being due mostly to the error in azimuth in old triangulation. 

The positions were determined by D. H. Baldwin in 1911.

BALD, LEWIS COUNTY, W. VA. (1911).

On Wolf Fork Mountain, 2 miles east of Roanoke, on summit known locally as 

"Bald Knob," which was once cleared of timber but has since grown over. Vistas 

were cut to Sugarloaf and Bear and view is clear from east to south. Station is on 

property of Duncan Neiss near corner tree to premises of J. Whitsell and Thomas 

Whalen.

Station mark: Sandstone post 7 inches square on top, 30 inches long, base 18 by 6 

inches, sunk 26 inches in ground; bronze triangulation tablet cemented in center of 

top.

Note: Signal is over mark and exactly where pole was placed by previous survey 

of Buckhannon quadrangle, in top of corner chestnut tree.
