Kelp, San Clemente Island

From Islapedia


Kelp, San Clemente Island , California, William E. Greenwell, 1862; Stehman Forney, 1878.—On the extreme edge of a long black-looking point, sloping in the direction of the southwest part of the island. North of the point, and about 800 meters distant, are two conspicuous hillocks. About 200 meters east of the station runs a deep gulch. In 1862 the tation was marked by a drill hole in the rock, and by three similar holes for reference marks 24 inches from the center, the lines connecting these with the center, making an angle of 120° with each other. In 1878 the center of station was remarked, as in note 3, page 165, but without reference stubs or stones. [Annual Report of the Director, U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey, 1904]
