Bowl, San Miguel Island

Bowl, San Miguel Island is a survey station established in 1934 by Robert W. Knox. When he failed to find station Brockway 2, it “was declared lost, and the new station, Bowl, was established.” It is located

“about 1/2 mile southwest of the southwesterly end of Simonton Cove, on a flat grassy spot on the top of a hill on the northwest side of the island. The station is approximately on a line between Castle Rock, a rocky island off the coast, and a prominent sand hill covered with shells. The sand hill is about 100 meters southeast of the station, and is the same as described for the location of Brockway 2.”

It was marked with a standard disk stamped BOWL 1934. This triangulation station appears on the San Miguel Island West topographic map.
