(visited by Ross Finlayson)

02-Aug-2022 -- While on vacation in Burlington, Vermont, I took time to drive northwards to visit this Degree Confluence Point, just 1 mile south of the US-Canada border. While walking along the road that passes next to the field that contains the point, I saw a “No Trespassing” sign posted exactly where the point should be, making it very clear that the owner of this land does not want people entering the field to reach the exact spot. So I stood on the edge of the field (55 feet away, +/- GPS error of 6 feet) and took my photos from there.
