Surveying benchmarks are meant to be points with known elevation and/or location and are meant to be returned to in the future. Even if you find a benchmark though, it isn’t necessarily where the last person who found it said it was. I want, more than anything, to go back to the normal I knew before the pandemic. But is that possible? How can our attempts at measuring the height and distance between things on Earth help us understand and accept change in our lives?
