In Idaho, and many of my surrounding states, the licensed surveyors start from an existing, accepted monumented point, which is usually a section corner, or a 1/4 corner. There's a lot of government land and therefore government surveys in this part of the country. Therefore a lot of accepted, existing survey monuments. It sounds like that's the way your surveyor is working it. They find that monument, and then its a matter of doing the plain geometry to establish where your corners should be. Then, if they cannot recover your monuments, they will set pins using high end gps telemetry, which is a lot more accurate than a chain and transit. You are also going to be dealing with your outside boundaries against your other neighbors, unless those boundaries are well monumented and established. On a recent survey, my guy found 5 monuments designating one corner. The GPS set the 6th one based on GPS from a known section corner (within a couple of inches of one of the others). They were all within 15 feet of each other. Keep us posted. steve
