State Wide Land Surveying

Above is a picture we took just before sunset in Portland Oregon. We were hired to calculated the azimuths of the support cables. If you look closely in the pic about ¾ the way up in the first tower there is a dark object. Rod man Eric Hyatt was going up the tower in a lift to get the measurements to the top cables. Jason (on left) and Randy (on right) were taking the measurements with a 1103+ total station. Photo complements of Greg Engelgau of Statewide Land Surveying, PLC in Gresham, Oregon.
