  • Official MaineDOT Description:

    To reach from the junction of Steamboat Wharf Rd and Rte 3, head Westerly on Rte 3 for 0.18mi to the station on the left. The station is a drill hole with a chiseled triangle around it.. IT IS: 18.5' SSE of CL; 4.6' SSE of face of curb; 1.3' NW of first cedar post; 2.3' NNW of back of granite block. BK#381

This drill hole could be challenging to find because it is small, blends in quite easily with the surrounding rock, and the triangle is shallowly chiseled. The to-reach and description are accurate and precise, however; once in the area we discovered that there were only two possible locations to check. The location of this mark is indicated by a painted "10" on the street, similar to what we found at 16718-11 nearby (although at that station, the entire designation was painted on the street).
