RESULTS OF SPIRIT LEVELING IN OREGON, 1896 TO 

1913, INCLUSIVE.

R. B. MARSHALL, Chief Geographer.

INTRODUCTION.

Cooperation. The State of Oregon contributed financially to the 

cooperative work from 1905 to 1913, inclusive.

Scope of the work. All results of spirit leveling in the State of 

Oregon previously published by the United States Geological Survey 

and all the results of later work are included in this report, rearranged by quadrangles. Most of these elevations were published in 

Bulletin 462 and were based on the 1905 adjustment; but as the 1912 

adjustment changed many of them nearly a foot it was thought advisable for convenience to include in this publication all results of 

leveling from 1896 to 1913, inclusive. All elevations are based on the 

precise-level line of the Coast and Geodetic Survey from Seattle, 

Wash., to Huntington, Oreg., as adjusted by that Survey in 1912, and 

on the precise-level line of the United States Geological Survey between Portland,. Oreg., and the California-Oregon State line.

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

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

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

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

geographer, under the general direction of R. B. Marshall, chief 

geographer. The names of the levelmen are given in the introductions to the several lists. 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 known are used; 

each line is run both forward and backward, and every precaution 

taken to guard against error. The allowable divergence between the 

forward and backward lines in feet is represented by the formula
6 SPIEIT LEVELING IN OREGON, 1896 TO 1913.

0.017 V^, 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, with an allowable closing error in feet 

of 0.05 VD, in which formula D equals 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.

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

first form is a circular bronze or aluminum tablet (0 and E, PL I), 

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 structure. 

The second form (F, PI. I), which is 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 aluminum-bronze cap is riveted over the top of 

the post. A third style of bench mark with abbreviated lettering 

(B and Z>, PL I) is used for unimportant points. This consists of 

a special copper nail 1^ inches in length driven through a copper 

washer £ inch in diameter. 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 (at < ?, PL I). The numbers stamped on 

the bench marks described in the following pages are the elevations 

to the nearest foot as determined by the levelman. These numbers 

are stamped with ^-inch 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 benchmark elevations will apply to the Director of the United States Geological Survey, at "Washington, D. C., for their adjusted values, using 

the markings as identification numbers only.

Datum. All Geological Survey elevations are referred to mean 

sea level, which is the level that the sea would assume if the influence 

of winds and tides were eliminated. This level is not the elevation 

determined from the mean of the highest and lowest tides, nor is it 

the half sum of the mean of all the high tides and 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
PRECISE LEVELING.

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 the 

half-tide level and mean sea level usually differ but little. It is 

assumed that there is no difference between the mean sea levels as 

determined from observations in the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of 

Mexico, or the Pacific Ocean.

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 for published results will be made from time to time as 

the precise-level lines of the Geological Survey or other Government 

organizations are extended.

Topographic maps. Maps of the following quadrangles wholly or 

partly in Oregon have been published by the United States Geological Survey up to April 20, 1914. They may be obtained (except 

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

The elevations in the following list are the results of a double 

simultaneous precise-level line run by C. H. Semper, from Benicia, 

Cal., in 1902, and extended through Oregon in 1903 along the Southern Pacific Railroad to Portland. The elevation accepted at Portland is that determined by a double primary-level line run in 1898 by 

J. H. Carlock from Coast and Geodetic Survey bench marks at 

Astoria. A Buff & Berger precise level and two double-faced nonextensible target rods were used.

Paulina, Prineville, Eiley, Round Mountain, Weiser, and Westfall quadrangles.

CROOK, HABNET, MAIHEUE, SHEEMAN, AND WASCO COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list are the results of a line of 

precise leveling begun at Ontario and run west along a stage road 

to Biley, thence northwest to Prineville, thence north to Biggs.

The line connects with the line run from. Huntington, Oreg., via 

Weiser, Idaho, to Ontario, Oreg., the bench marks on which were 

checked by the transcontinental precise-level party of the Coast and 

Geodetic Survey. The elevations are based upon the 1912 adjusted 

heights at Ontario, and no adjustment has been made between that 

point and Biggs, except that for orthometric correction this line 

furnishing the accepted elevation at Biggs to which the primary line 

from Astoria to Pasco is adjusted.
16 SPIRIT LEVELING IN OREGON, 1896 TO 1913.

The leveling was done by C. H. Semper in 1903 and 1904, by the 

double-rodded simultaneous method.

The standard bench marks are stamped with the letter " H " in 

addition to figures of elevation 8 feet too low, the correction to the 

original being -j-8.3 feet.

Telocaset, The Dalles, Troutdale, and Umatilla quadrangles.

BAKER, CLATSOP, COLUMBIA, GIL1IAM, MORROW, MULTNOMAH, SHERMAN, UMATILLA, 

UNION, AND WASCO COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list are corrected values along 

double-rodded lines previously published in appendixes to the Twentieth and Twenty-first Annual Keports of the United States Geological 

Survey. They are based primarily upon bench marks of the Coast 

and Geodetic Survey at Astoria, and between that place and Portland the original figures have been retained. Between Huntington 

and the Washington-Oregon State line the line was resurveyed, 

many of the bench marks were redetermined and some were reset 

by the transcontinental precise-level party of the Coast and Geodetic 

Survey, and all the bench marks have been adjusted to accord with 

the 1912 results obtained by that survey. They also accord at Biggs 

with the elevation brought by precise leveling via Prineville from 

the corrected height at Ontario. On account of closures on Blalock 

Island and Umatilla quadrangles in 1906 and 1907, respectively, the 

adjustment made in 1905 was abandoned between Biggs and Pendleton, Oreg., and between Umatilla and Wallula, Wash., and a new 

adjustment made as follows: First, a rod correction of 0.001 foot 

per foot, increasing original differences, has been applied to the line 

published in the twenty-first annual report, as was found necessary 

by comparison with the Coast and Geodetic Survey work; second, a 

remaining closure error of 1.4 feet in circuit via Umatilla from 

Wallula, Wash., to Pendleton, has been distributed; and third, the 

line between Arlington and Umatilla has been raised to agreement 

without additional adjustment, and the remaining error, 1.3 feet, 

distributed on the line between Biggs and Arlington.

The leveling from Astoria to Arlington was done in 1898 by J. H. 

Carlock and the leveling along the other lines was done in 1899 by 

H. S. Crowe.

The standard bench marks are stamped with the letter "A." Some 

of the figures of elevation as stamped are as much as 8 feet too low 

near the Huntington end of the line.

The elevations in the following list are based upon 1912 adjustments by the Coast and Geodetic Survey, which connected with bench 

marks of the Geological Survey along the Oregon-Washington K. E. 

& Navigation Co.'s track. For other elevations in the Baker City 

quadrangle, see line from Astoria to Huntington.

Most of the leveling was done in 1898-99 by W. E. Manning. 

Some work was done in Sumpter quadrangle in 1900 by C. L. Nelson, 

in the Baker City quadrangle by C. H. Semper in 1904, and by D. S.

public school at Baker City. The elevation of this bench mark is 

accepted as 3,440.871 feet, as determined by the precise line of levels 

run along the Oregon-Washington K. R. & Navigation Co.'s track 

by the Coast and Geodetic Survey.

The leveling was doneMn 1905 by Stuart T. Penick and Homer 

D. Hadley.

Arlington, Blalock Island, Condon, Heppner, and Umatilla quadrangles.

GILLIAM, MOBROW, AND UMATILLA COUNTIES.

The elevations in the following list are based upon corrected 

heights along the Oregon-Washington R. R. & 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 Twentyfirst Annual Report of the United 'States Geological Survey. The 

new adjustment, first, applies a rod correction of 0.001 foot per 

vertical foot increasing differences of elevations (a correction determined by comparison with Coast and Geodetic Survey elevations 

south of Pendleton, Oreg.); second, adjusts a remaining closure error 

of 1.4 feet from Wallula, Wash., via Umatilla to Pendleton, Oreg.; 

and, third, raises the line between Arlington and Umatilla to agreement without additional adjustment.

The leveling in the Arlington, Blalock Island, and Heppner quadrangles was done in 1906 by John R. Evans and that in the Umatilla 

quadrangle in 1907 by T. J. McClain. Additional leveling in Arlington quadrangle was done in 1912 by L. R. Ebert and D. H. Watson 

and in 1913 by D. S. Birkett. The leveling in Condon quadrangle 

was done in 1913 by Birkett.

The leveling was done in cooperation with the State, and the bench 

marks were stamped with the State name.
