yes but the peculiar trifinium diagram on the ground there shows the
trijunction as a balanced arrowhead shape
with the 2 acute angle states looking quite equiangular

rather than the more southerly one looking greater than the more
northerly one
as the topo shows it

if you see what i mean


& the monument exaggerates this evidently bogus statement by
prolonging the 3 state line stripes out beyond the circular tripoint
precinct with stone walls that fall off the edge of the heights
dramatically into the nothingness beyond

like it shouts
this is the true configuration

but clearly the usgs disagrees radically with the nps about one of
the vectors
