KL0637.The horizontal coordinates were established by classical geodetic methods
KL0637.and adjusted by the National Geodetic Survey in January 1993.
KL0637
KL0637.The NAVD 88 height was computed by applying the VERTCON shift value to
KL0637.the NGVD 29 height (displayed under SUPERSEDED SURVEY CONTROL.)
KL0637
KL0637.Significant digits in the geoid height do not necessarily reflect accuracy.
KL0637.GEOID18 height accuracy estimate available here.

KL0637 STATION DESCRIPTION
KL0637
KL0637'DESCRIBED BY COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY 1894 (PAW)
KL0637'ON THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT ELBERT, ABOUT 7 MILES BY TRAIL FROM
KL0637'THE TOWN OF TWIN LAKES (ALSO CALLED DAYTON). THE STATION
KL0637'IS MARKED BY A COPPER BOLT LEADED INTO A DRILL HOLE IN A
KL0637'LARGE SURFACE ROCK. IT IS ALSO MARKED, 5 INCHES ABOVE THE
KL0637'BOLT, BY A DRILL HOLE IN A ROCK EMBEDDED IN A 5-INCH LAYER
KL0637'OF MASONRY BUILT BETWEEN THE BASES OF THE THREE SMALL BRICK
KL0637'PIERS USED IN MOUNTING THE INSTRUMENT. AT A DISTANCE OF
KL0637'5 FEET IN EACH OF THE DIRECTIONS NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, A ND
KL0637'WEST IS A REFERENCE STONE MARKED WITH A DRILL HOLE. THE
KL0637'STATION IS NEARLY SURROUNDED BY A SQUARE ROCK WALL.
KL0637
KL0637 STATION RECOVERY (1935)
KL0637
KL0637'RECOVERY NOTE BY COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY 1935
KL0637'STATION IS LOCATED ON THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT ELBERT, ABOUT 7
KL0637'MILES AIRLINE FROM THE VILLAGE OF TWIN LAKES. THE STATION
KL0637'CONSISTS OF A HALF-INCH COPPER BOLT SET IN A BOULDER AND
KL0637'HELD IN PLACE BY LEAD. IT IS ABOUT 10 METERS NORTH-NORTHEAST
KL0637'OF A CIRCULAR ROCK WALL ABOUT 12 FEET IN DIAMETER. THE ENTIRE
KL0637'STATION STATION HILL CONSISTS OF LOOSE BOULDERS AND THERE
KL0637'IS NO VEGETATION OF ANY KIND ON IT. THE STATION WAS RECOVERED
KL0637'IN GOOD CONDITION.
KL0637'
KL0637'REFERENCE MARK NO. 1 IS NORTH OF THE STATION.
KL0637'IT IS A NEW MARK AND IS STAMPED MOUNT ELBERT
KL0637'1935.
KL0637'
KL0637'REFERENCE MARK NO. 2 IS SOUTH OF THE STATION.
KL0637'IT IS A NEW MARK AND IS STAMPED MOUNT ELBERT
KL0637'1935.
KL0637'
KL0637'AZIMUTH MARK IS SOUTH OF THE STATION ABOUT MIDWAY DOWN THE
KL0637'ROCKY SLOPE THAT LEADS TO SOUTH ELBERT AND IS ACCORDING TO
KL0637'NOTE 12A. IT IS BY A LARGE ROCK CAIRN, IS A NEW MARK AND
KL0637'IS STAMPED MOUNT ELBERT 1935.
KL0637'
KL0637'FOR THE BEST ROUTE TO THE SUMMIT, THE FOREST RANGER IN LEADVILLE
KL0637'FOR SOME RELIABLE RESIDENT IN TWIN LAKES SHOULD BE CONSULTED.
KL0637'
KL0637'THIS STATION WAS NOT RE-MARKED AS TO DO SO WOULD REQUIRE THE
KL0637'REMOVAL OF A LEAST A CUBIC YARD OF LOOSE ROCK AND AN EXTRA
KL0637'PACK TRAIN TO CARRY UP BUILDING MATERIAL. AT THIS SEASON
KL0637'OF THE YEAR PACK ANIMALS ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN.
KL0637'
KL0637'DUE TO THEIR LOCATION, IT WAS IMPRACTICAL TO MEASURE BETWEEN
KL0637'REFERENCE MARKS.

KL0637 STATION RECOVERY (1953)
KL0637
KL0637'RECOVERY NOTE BY COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY 1953 (RLE)
KL0637'THE STATION MARK, REFERENCE MARK NO. 1, REFERENCE MARK NO.
KL0637'2 AND THE AZIMUTH MARK WERE RECOVERED AND FOUND IN GOOD CONDITION.
KL0637'A NEW AND COMPLETE DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS.
KL0637'
KL0637'THE STATION IS LOCATED ON THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT ELBERT, ABOUT
KL0637'7 MILES NORTHWEST OF THE SMALL VILLAGE OF TWIN LAKES, 30
KL0637'FEET NORTHEAST OF A CIRCLE OF ROCKS ABOUT 12 FEET IN DIAMETER
KL0637'AND ABOUT 2 FEET HIGH. THE STATION IS MARKED BY A COPPER
KL0637'BOLT 1/2 INCH IN DIAMETER THAT IS LEADED IN A DRILL HOLE
KL0637'IN A LARGE BOULDER AND PROJECTING 1 INCH.
KL0637'
KL0637'REFERENCE MARK NO. 1 IS IN THE CENTER OF A NORTH-SOUTH RIDGE
KL0637'ABOUT 3-1/2 FEET BELOW STATION ELEVATION, SET FLUSH IN A DRILL
KL0637'HOLE IN OUTCROPPING BEDROCK AND IS STAMPED MT ELBERT NO 1
KL0637'1935.
KL0637'
KL0637'REFERENCE MARK NO. 2 IS 12 FEET EAST OF A CIRCLE OF ROCKS,
KL0637'SET FLUSH IN A DRILL HOLE IN OUTCROPPING BEDROCK ABOUT 2 FEET
KL0637'BELOW STATION ELEVATION AND IS STAMPED MT ELBERT NO 2 1935.
KL0637'
KL0637'THE AZIMUTH MARK IS ABOUT MIDWAY DOWN THE ROCKY SLOPE THAT
KL0637'LEADS TO SOUTH ELBERT, 7 FEET NORTHEAST OF A CAIRN, SET FLUSH
KL0637'IN A DRILL HOLE IN OUTCROPPING BEDROCK AND IS STAMPED MT ELBERT
KL0637'1935.
