bench mark of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey at Tula- 
lip. It was planned to continue these levels so as to form a connection 
with levels previously run from the east to Slate Creek Pass, but on 
account of deep snows a gap of about 8 miles was left uncompleted. 
The leveling was done by Mr. E. M. Fry, levelman in charge. All 
bench marks dependent on this datum are stamped with the letters 
"TUL " in addition to the figures of elevation.
