(visited by Ross Finlayson)

12-Jan-2023 -- I’m spending a few days in the Phoenix area (escaping relentless rain storms that are currently battering my home in California). I decided to re-visit this easy Degree Confluence Point (that I had previously visited 15 years ago), in order to get a ‘drone’s eye’ view of the point

This point is very easy to visit, as long as you start hiking North of the irrigation canal (that passes South of the point). Last time, there was a crop of cotton growing in the field; this time, the field is fallow.

Here is a remote-controlled aerial video of this confluence point.
