ABSTRACT:
A marking device for aiding in locating a fire hydrant or the like, in the event that it is covered by snow, or underbrush, or some similar concealing environment. The marking device comprises a mounting bracket adapted for attachment to the fire hydrant and an elongated stem projecting upwardly from the mounting bracket so as to extend for a predetermined height above the hydrant to which it is attached. The stem preferably has a flag mounted thereon for enhancing the visibility of the marking device. The mounting device and the stem are so constructed and arranged that the stem can be swung from its generally upright position to a downwardly angled position, and thus out of any interfering relationship with the conventional operating nut on the hydrant.
