Is this around Toledo?

If it is, that survey stone has a very interesting history.

yes it is, its just before the lost peninsula and around 1500 yards from my house.

Amazing. The famous Michigan-Ohio State rivalry is all about who got to keep Toledo.

Of course, people say that Michigan came out victorious because they got the Upper Peninsula. Nobody wanted all that wilderness until they discovered rich ore deposits there.

i dug up some more interesting items on this stone. its the last in the line of atleast 60 stones. the USGS and the survey teams of both states set them from west to east. o the 1st stone is near the MI/OH/IN lines. (if its still there) i have found that another person in Toledo found another stone like this one, but its not as big nor as accessible. (its in some guys back yard)

That's the good side of the stone

hehe

That's one for the Michigan furs!
