GEODET|C SURVEYING
IN THE NORTHEAST

The Coast and Geodetic Survey of
the Department of Commerce has an
nounced the completion of the observ-
ing on an arc of primary triangula-
ton which extends $50 miles from
northern Utah, northwestward to the
Columbia River in northeastern Ore
gon, thence westward down the Column
bia River to Portland, Oregon.
About a hundred stations have had
their ATTITUDES and longitudes accur-
ately determined and, as they have
been substantially monumented with
concrete blocks, which have inscribed
metal tablets, they will be available
for generations as starting points of
federal, state, boundary and other sur
veys and engineering works. AS soon
as the office computations can be
made at the Washington headquar-
tiers of the Coast and Geodetic Survey,
the data for this survey will be pub
lished in order that they may be more
readily available to those needing
them.
The party under C. V. Hodgson,
making this survey, used for the first
time automobile trucks on primary
triangulation zand they proved so sue
cessful that all other surveying par
ties engaged on similar work will use
this means of communication. The
trucks carried the party and outfit to
the base of the peaks on which obser-
vations were made with the theodo-
lite. The camp equipage and instru-
ments were carried from the truck to
the top of the peak by horses or by
the members of the party.
Accurate elevations Of numerous
mountain peaks were determined by
this survey. In fact, it is only by such
methods as were employed that reliable
elevations of peaks can be obtained. 1t
is not feasible to run lines of spirit
levels up the mountain sides and bar
ometric leveling gives only crude re-
suits.
Most of the observations were made
at night by use of acetylene lamps.
The longest distance observed was 1874
miles, between a peak in northern Utah
and a second peak in southern Idaho.
The lamps were cared for by trained
light keepers. In spite of the rugged
country over which this work was
carried there We're no serious acct
dents to the members Of the party in
either of the two seasons during which
observations were made.
