From 22.328688, 114.262118 to 22.329605, 114.262343 based on my notes from 2013 (copy below), and today's post by mountaingirlhk

Position approximate. I saw it last week on a walk from Hang Hau up to UST. The trail goes up over a peak, then down to this point where the path meets another flat path that skirted around the hill.

If you stand facing SSE, the slab has two arrows:

  1. One directs you to the left around the hill towards "L4", and a clearly visible trench leads off in that direction.
  2. The other directs you to the right around the hill towards "PB100" and "LL1". The cut-away hillside shows there was a trench here too, but this is now a well-used walking trail, so the trench is mostly filled in.

(Note to self: If taking photos of slabs in future, it'd be good to mark which direction is north, to help orientate when looking later. Could be just put a coin on northern point, or a compass if there's one available.)
