Did anybody get any answers from anybody on this
one yet?
I came to think about angles.
On the DEDK I find the treaty weak and discribes a
more general line. From the treaty you would know where the border goes, but you
would be unable to know exactly where the border is. What really counts are the
border maps, which describes precisely where the border is. Each
markers is measured and survey in comparison with one another.
So my guess is that "the peak" is just general
referring to the peak-area, and the marker would be the physical
demarcation.

PS I have scan and attach a DKSE survey map
later

Ah. Yes, those. They confused me too. More
images:

There
were three of those smaller ones around at the
110 marker. One just 1 m
north of it, another 3-4 m
north and a third 10 m (or so) to the west. Two
of
them are visible on image KT_3 above. The rock in the
middle of KT_3
is the one with the 110 marker on the
opposite side.
Unless the
border surveyors made a particiularly lousy
job they cannot be border
markers.
If you look carefully on the Austrian border map you
will
see three symbols around 110, two circles and a
triangle. Do these symbols
refer to the KT-stones?
So what cound they be?
From my
understanding border marking involves all
sorts of complicated geographic
measurements and
calculations. Sometimes neighbouring
countries'
reference grids have to be connected to eachother, and
more
reference points in the vicinity of the border
need to be established.
Could they simply be geogrid reference points? And in
that case,
could KT mean Kempten, which would be the
nearest town with a
Vermessungsamt in it?
Anyway, there are now so many questions that
another
visit seems unavoidable.
Btw, Jan has a really great idea
about what we should
suggest to the Jungholz community. I hope he will
take
the chance to comment on
that.
