Loading ...I am of an age that when they taught us surveying it was done with a flat metal tape that was marked at the one-chain length and at the two-chain length. Each “chain” was 66 feet in length. And a typical sample plot for forest inventory was often one chain by one chain (66 feet x 66 feet). Sometimes it was one chain by two chains (66 feet x (2 x 66 feet)). Somewhere along the way the authorities in Canada decided to switch to meters as a way to measure in current land surveying. By then I had become accustomed to working with 6’s. Somehow I escaped the 666 curse unharmed. Cheers. Equiz.
