Bonn, Santa Rosa Island is a triangulation station established in 1934 by Charles K. Green. It was located

“on top of the highest bluff in the vicinity directly south of station Alta 2. About 40 meters in from the sea bluff at the foot of which there is a barrel-shaped tit of rock. Station East Point 2 and the highest peak on the south side of Santa Cruz Island are on range at the station. A large black offshore rock and station tank on Ford Point are on line to the southwest. The best way to reach the station is to make a boat landing at Ford Point and make east along the beach to the station. The station is at the end of one of the ridges leading down from station Alta 2.”

The station was marked with a standard disk. This triangulation station appears on the Santa Rosa Island East topographic map. [UTM 10: North 3,758,273 East 774,662; UTM 11: North 3,758,428 East 220,019].
