"NOGLS 3290" is a benchmark monumented by the USGS in 1903 or 1904 located in Pima County, Arizona.
This disc is apart of the NOGLS vertical datum conducted during 1903, 1904, and 1905 across the Tucson area. To learn more about the NOGLS datum see this page.
From Wentworth Road and a powerline road, head northwest along the power line road. A medium clearance vehicle can be driven down the power line road. Follow the road through a gate and then turn left on a dirt road heading southwest. Continue for a thousand feet to the benchmark on the right of the road.
