Trig points are generally located at the top of hills or points of prominence in the landscape. Many provide unique views and challenges, with some being difficult to get to.

These points were regarded as valuable to surveyors, providing reference points for measuring distance and direction, and assisting in the creation of maps.

I made a groovy map before this trip, complete with archived caches possibly still in place, unpublished (and not archived) trigs, GCA and GC caches, confluences, and possible camping spots. I didn't end up with enough time to go archived cache hunting so much, and the second half of our trip the route and camping was completely altered due to the heat, but we did make a huge effort to check out all the unpublished trig sites. We found quite a few.
