go west - the north america line - the earth art works

96°W - 40°N

Earth Art Work-Nº 436

Field Edge

Boehmer Farm

Nemaha County

Kansas

17.7.2001 - 11:30

with the help of Alan Boehmer

 

I had expected the site to be exactly on the border between Nebraska and Kansas, which is also the location of the road. The GPS, however, indicated a spot about 30 meters further into the field. Either measurements were not as exact in the 19th century, or the GPS is not always as precise as expected.
