Marker QUEST

#landmarker #dominionlandsurvey
Marker Quest is a video showing Dawn and Trevor on their quest to find the holy grail of survey markers, the Dominion Land Survey marker. Dating back to 1918, the cast iron marker defines the section of land Dawn and Trevor live on. The DLS began in 1871 and continued until 1930. The survey was a way to establish Canadian territory and ensure American encroachment on Canada was thwarted. Dawn and Trevor will continue their quest to find the remaining markers.

The marks in the snow look like owl wing prints from scooping up a mouse... I've seen those a few times out near my parents place.
