Clay what about GPS coordinates to describe claim boundaries ?
where can i find all four corner pole coordinates for a claim. iam working pretty close to one corner and that post is missing.the claim is near randsburg calif.
thank you brad
Also a placer claim does not have to have corner markers if it is located using a aliquot part. So, there won't be a corner post to find.
Last two days bushwacking on our new claims.
Found two different corner markers. Both in places where there weren't corners. When it was previously claimed.
Kind of wasted work if your not even gonna put them in the right spot.
From what I understand, the markers on the ground are what define the actual claim. The paperwork doesn’t override the corner markers, it’s the other way around. Right?

Aliquot parts - 1 SECTION roughly 640 Acres =
160 Acres x 4 = 4 of them
40 Acres x 4 = 16 of them
20 Acres x 2 = 32 of them in a SECTION usually. In a perfect square world !

Thank you internet

Would you want to be the guy who say only really got 16 acres when you claimed a 20 acre claim because your gps helped you put in inaccurate corners?
Some one comes along and says..."I know you claimed 20.. but, your corners set it at 16. So, that's mine now because its the markers on the ground that count."
Luckily it doesn't work that way.
See post immediately above this one. Boom.
Barry, I love you man!
Also, the CA life claim rules match the CO rules for ALL claims. Not everywhere is CA despite what some folks seem to think 樂
