This mark was an easy find, and easy to access because it's so close to a parking area. It's set into a small outcrop in a narrow area of grass northwest of a parking lot for a wharf. The disk is in good condition. Rich and I came here after a lobster lunch in Southwest Harbor in search of this mark and another mark in this tidal series, TIDAL 4, which is just a few hundred feet north on another ledge.
A report on the condition of this survey mark has been submitted to NGS, along with the following recovery note:
Recovered in good condition as described. The road leading to the wharf is called Rice Road.
