ELEVATION OF MOUNT RAINIER.

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

was determined byC. 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.

SPIRIT LEVELING IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, 

1896 TO 1917, INCLUSIVE.

R. B. MARSHALL, Chief Geographer.

INTRODUCTION.

Cooperation. The State of Washington contributed financially to 

the work from 1909 to 1916, inclusive.

Previous publication ft. All results of spirit, leveling in Washington 

previously published by the United. States Geological Survey in Bulletins 457 and 557 and all results of later work in the State are included in this report. All elevations are based on mean sea level 

datum and are in accord with the precise-level lines of the United 

States Coast and Geodetic Survey from Seattle to Wallula ana from 

Pasco to Spokane.

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. Credit is given to the different levelmen in the introduction 

to each list. The office work in 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 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 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 1917.

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

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

3^ inches in diameter and one-quarter inch thick, having a 3-inch 

stem, which is cemented into a drill hole in solid rock in the wall of 

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

structure. The second form (F, PI. I), used where masonry or rock 

is not available, consists of a hollow wrought-iron post 3£ inches in 

outer diameter and 4 feet in length, which is set about 3 feet in the 

ground. The bottom is spread out to a width of 10 inches in order 

to give a firm bearing on the earth. A bronze or alumium-bronze 

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

with abbreviated lettering (B and D, PI. I) is used for unimportant 

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

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

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

and cooperation by States is indicated by the addition of the State 

name (G, PI. 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 ^--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 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 elevations determined by the United States Geological Survey and the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey are 

referred to mean sea level, which is the level that the sea would assume if the influence of winds and tides was 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 the mean of all the low tides, which is called the 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 

accuracy is desired they must extend over several years. At ocean 

stations the half-tide level and the 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, and the Pacific Ocean.
INTRODUCTION. 7

The connection with, tidal stations for bench marks in certain areas 

that lie at some distance from the sea coast, when still uncertain, is 

indicated by the addition of a letter or 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 United States Geological Survey, the United States Coast 

and Geodetic 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 January 15, 1918. They may be obtained for 

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

Director of the Survey at Washington, D. C.
