Comments on the location information

  • Reference say "about 4.5 miles northeast of Corona, Riverside County, California. The PLSS does not have townships in this area. The PLSS table is an estimate and I changed what was there because it was obviously wrong. The Lat/long is an educated guess - very low accuracy given the description of the location in the report.
