1877 survey marker 48

It is located down a path a short way north of a parking area on Talimena Scenic Drive in Ouachita National Forest, about 17 miles (27 km) northwest of Mena, Arkansas.

The pipe was mounted in a stone and mortar base installed by the United States Forest Service in 1974.

The marker was placed in 1877 following a series of controversial surveys to demarcate the border between Arkansas and what was then Indian Territory.
