The location relative to the other stations appears to be in error. The Expedition Utah provided the coordinates that I plotted but it appears to be too close to the Pacific Springs Station.

I have found the location of the station, if it actually is the burnt ranch site. It shows up on Google Earth and I have corrected the point on my map.
