#MonumentMonday. In 2019, Mario Quiros found century-old Triangulation Station KNOLL in Humboldt County, CA. Records suggested it was long gone. He documented it, submitted it to the USGS. KNOLL is officially still standing.
Thanks, Mario from @MarioQuiros

#FlashbackFriday. A vintage Motorola ad for surveyors, promising an end to "hand waving, whistling, and yelling signals" in the field.
The tools change. The problem doesn't.

NSPS has more mentees than mentors, #students and early-career #surveyors are asking for guidance faster than we can match them.
If you're a licensed surveyor, we need you.
