ELEVATION OF MOUNT BAINIEB.

The elevation of the highest snow-capped summit of Mount Rainier 

was determined by C. H. Birdseye in 1913 from carefully checked 

vertical angles based on spirit-level elevation of McClure Rock. The 

distance between McClure Rock and Crater, a station marked by a 

rock cairn on the bare south rim of the mountain, was computed from 

triangulation data. The distance from Crater to the summit, which 

is 980 feet, was measured by stadia and checked by plane-table 

intersections.

The elevation of Crater is 14,267 feet and that of the summit 

14,408 feet.

Mount Rainier is, so far as known, the second highest point in the 

United States.

RESULTS OF SPIRIT LEVELING IN THE STATE OF 

WASHINGTON, 1896 TO. 1913, INCLUSIVE.

E. B. MARSHALL, Chief Geographer.

INTRODUCTION.

Cooperation. The State of Washington contributed financially to 

the work from 1909 to 1913, inclusive.

Previous publication. All results of spirit leveling in Washington 

previously published by the United States. Geological Survey in Bulletin 457 and all results of later work in the State are included in 

this report. All elevations are based on the precise-level line of the 

United States Coast and .Geodetic Survey from Seattle to Wallula, 

as adjusted by that bureau in 1912.

Personnel. The field work previous to 1903 was done under the 

general direction of E. U. Goode, geographer; that for 1903 to 1906, 

inclusive, under E. M. Douglas, geographer; that for 1907 under E. B. 

Marshall, geographer; and the later work under T. G. Gerdine, 

geographer, under the general direction of E. B. Marshall, chief geographer. Credit 'is given to the different levelmen in the introduction 

to each list. The office work of computation, adjustment, and preparation of lists was done mainly by S. S. Gannett, geographer, under 

the general direction of E. M. Douglas, geographer.

Classification. The elevations are classified as precise or primary, 

according to the methods employed in their determination. For precise lines instruments and rods of the highest grade are used, each line 

is run in both forward and backward directions, and every precaution 

is taken to guard against error. The allowable divergence between 

the forward and the backward lines in feet is represented by the formula 0.017-^D, in which D is the distance in miles between bench 

marks. For primary lines standard Y levels are used; lines are run 

in circuits or are closed on precise lines, withjin allowable closing 

error in feet represented by the formula 0.05 -/D, in which D is the 

length of the circuit in miles, sufficient care being given the work to 

maintain this standard. For levels of both classes careful office adjustments are made, the small outstanding errors being distributed 

over the lines.

6 SPIRIT LEVELING IN WASHINGTON, 1896 TO 1913.

Bench marks. The standard bench marks are of two forms. The 

first form is a circular bronze or aluminum tablet (G and E, PI. I), 

3£ inches in diameter and one-fourth inch thick, having a 3-inch stem, 

which is cemented in a drill hole in solid rock; in the wall of some 

public building, in a bridge abutment, or in other substantial masonry 

structure. The second form (F, PL I), employed where masonry or 

rock is not accessible, consists of a hollow wrought-iron post 3^ inches 

in outer diameter and 4 feet in length. It is split at the bottom and 

expanded to 10 inches in order to give a firm bearing on the earth 

and is set about 3 feet in the ground. A bronze or aluminum-bronze 

cap is riveted upon the top of the post. A third style of bench mark 

with abbreviated lettering (B a'nd Z>, PL I) is used for unimportant 

points. This consists of a special copper nail 1^ inches in length 

driven through a copper washer seven-eighths of an inch in diameter.

The tablets, as well as the caps on the iron posts, are appropriately 

lettered, and for cooperating States the fact of such cooperation is 

indicated by the addition of the State name ( G, PL I). The numbers 

stamped on the bench marks described in the following pages represent the elevations to the nearest foot as determined by the levelman. 

These numbers are stamped with jVinch steel dies on the tablets or 

post caps, to the left of the word " feet." The office adjustment of 

the notes and the reduction to mean sea level datum may so change 

some of the figures that the original markings are 1 or 2 feet in error. 

It is assumed that engineers and others who have occasion to use the 

bench-mark elevations will apply to the Director of the United States 

Geological Survey, at Washington, D. C., for the adjusted values, 

and will use the markings as identification numbers only.

Datum. All United States Geological Survey elevations are referred to mean sea level, which is the level that the sea would assume 

if tke influence of winds and tides were eliminated. This level is 

not the elevation determined from the mean of the highest and the 

lowest tides, nor is it the half sum of the mean of all the high tides 

and of the mean of all the low tides, which is called half-tide level. 

Mean sea level is the average height of the water, all stages of the 

tide being considered. It is determined from observations made by 

means of tidal gages placed at stations where local conditions, 

such as long narrow bays, rivers, and like features, will not affect 

the height of the water. To obtain even approximately correct results these observations must extend over at least one lunar month, 

and if great accuracy is desired they must extend over several years. 

At ocean stations half-tide level and mean sea level usually differ 

but little. It is assumed that there is no difference between the mean 

sea levels determined from observations in the Atlantic Ocean, the 

Gulf of Mexico, or the Pacific Ocean.
PRECISE LEVELING. 7

The connection with tidal stations for bench marks in certain areas 

that lie at some distance from the seacoast is still uncertain, and 

this fact is indicated by the addition of a letter or a word to the right 

of the word " Datum " on tablets or posts. For such areas corrections 

of published results will be made from time to time as the preciselevel lines of the United States Geological Survey or other Government organizations are extended.

Topographic maps. Maps of the following quadrangles, wholly or 

partly in Washington, have been published by the United States 

Geological Survey up to July 15, 1913. They may be obtained for 

10 cents each, or (except as noted) $3 for 50, on application to the

The elevations in the following list were determined by a doublerodded primary-level line extended from a tide gage at Tacoma and 

corrected to accord with the transcontinental precise-level line of the 

United States Coast and Geodetic Survey as adjusted in 1912, which 

redetermined the elevation of many of these bench marks.

The leveling was done by H. S. Crowe in 1898, except in the Snoqualmie quadrangle, which was done by H. K. Kalloch in 1897, and in 

the Mount Stuart quadrangle, which was done by F. L. Cole in 1896. 

Additional leveling was done in Tacoma quadrangle in 1913 by D. S.

Birkett. An important result of this work was to check the elevation 

of Tacoma from Seattle by the connection at Auburn with the Coast 

and Geodetic Survey precise-level line. A closure error of -f-1.0 

foot was adjusted, and the line Meeker Junction to South Prairie 

was corrected by a constant of 0.053 feet. Several bench marks 

established between Tacoma and South Prairie set by H. S. Crowe 

in 1898, including one at Orting, at the junction of a level line to 

Mount Rainier, were recovered. This new line corrected the original published values in the Twentieth Annual Eeport by small 

amounts but showed a remaining discrepancy between South Prairie 

and Green River of 0.9 foot in Crowe's line to be adjusted to agree 

with the 1912 adjustment value at Green River.

Beverly, Ephrata, Malaga, Palisades, 'ftuincy, Bedrock, Trinidad, Wenatchee, 

Winchester, and Yakima quadrangles.

CHELAN, DOUGLAS, GRANT, AND KITTITAS COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list were determined by primary 

leveling extended from the Coast and Geodetic Survey precise-level 

line at and near Ellensburg. Additional bench marks in this area 

established by the Reclamation Service are also included in this list.

The leveling was done as follows: Wenatchee quadrangle in 1898 

by E. M. Fry, in 1903 by K. A. Farmer, and in 1909 by C. H. Semper; 

Palisades quadrangle in 1903 by Farmer; Trinidad quadrangle in 

1903 by Farmer and in 1909 by Semper; Ephrata, Malaga, Winchester, and Quincy quadrangles by Farmer in 1903 and Semper in 1909; 

and Beverly, Redrock, and Yakima quadrangles in 1909 by Semper. 

Additional leveling in Malaga and Palisades quadrangles was done 

in 1911 by H. L. McDonald and in Beverly quadrangle in 1913 by 

D. S. Birkett.

The work since 1908 has been done in cooperation with the State, 

and the standard bench marks are stamped with the State name.

LEWIS AND PIERCE COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list were determined by primary 

leveling extended from Tacoma. The double-rodded line reported 

upon in Bulletin 457, pages 85 to 87, from Kapowsin to McClure Rock 

was joined at Elbe by a line leveled twice from Silver Creek, and the 

portion Elbe to McClure Rock was releveled. A mean was adopted 

after applying rod corrections.

The leveling in Mount St. Helens quadrangle was done in 1913 by 

E. M. Bandli and in Eatonville and Mount Rainier quadrangles in 

1910 and 1913 by E. M. Bandli.

PRIMARY LEVELING. 123 

Arlington, Blalock Island, Prosser, and Umatilla quadrangles.

BENTON AND KLICKITAT COUNTIES.

The elevations are based upon corrected heights along the OregonWashington Railroad & Navigation Co.'s track on a double-rodded 

line, run in 1899 by H. S. Crowe. The original results of that line 

were published in the appendix to the Twenty-first Annual Report 

of the Geological Survey, and the new adjustment consisted, first, in 

applying a mean rod correction of 0.001 foot per vertical foot increasing differences of elevation, a correction determined by comparison with the Coast and Geodetic Survey elevations south of 

Pendleton, Oreg.; second, in adjusting a remaining closure error of 

1.4 foot from Wallula, Wash., via Umatilla to Pendleton, Oreg., and 

third, in raising the line between Arlington and Umatilla to an agreement without additional adjustment.

A tie was made to a bench mark in the Zillah list given as 1,636.508, 

a value determined by leveling based upon the Coast and Geodetic 

Survey precise line which crosses the Zillah quadrangle. . The corrected value obtained from the south is 1,635.499 feet, a discrepancy 

of 1.009 feet.

The leveling in the Blalock Island and Prosser quadrangles was 

done in 1906 by John R. Evans, and that in the Umatilla quadrangle 

in 1907 by T. J. McClain. The leveling in Arlington quadrangle and 

additional leveling in Blalock Island quadrangle was done in 1913 

by D. S. Birkett.

The elevations in the following list were determined by primary 

leveling and accord with Bulletin 457. The connection with Coast 

and Geodetic Survey bench mark at Olympia was unsatisfactory and 

was not used, the adjusted elevation based upon Tacoma being 1.09 

feet less than the Coast and Geodetic Survey value at Olympia.

The work was done in 1912 and 1913 by E. M. Bandli.
