THIS SITE HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND IS CURRENTLY LOGGING DATA!

A site on the Philmont Scout Ranch near Cimarron, New Mexico was installed by UNAVCO personnel with help from Philmont staff on September 29, 2006.

The monument is set in moderately well-cemented ash-flow tuff with excellent sky view. The Philmont staff have also graciously provided radio communication of the data down to the ranch and ftp transfer from there to the UNAVCO archive!

Many thanks to Mark Anderson, David Allen and the rest of the Philmont folks for helping us locate and install a GPS site on the ranch!
