Remarks

Remarks:

This could be equal to locus 75 but it was separated by tumble and wall 78. Originally believed this corner by Bench 78 and Pit 80 was a piece of 75 that was cut off from the main part of 75 by the pit, but it varied quite a bit in consistency and is not really equal to 75 after all.
