Observations and Notes

July 20, 2018 Greg Miyake and Sarah Kim write:

The Cayuga #41 site was largely hidden beneath dead leaves and tree debris and after tracing out the block foundations and scanning the vicinity for any concrete chunks, we were unable to locate an arrow or any sign that there may have been one in the past. The beacon tower foundation and supports are all that remain now.
