This is long shot but if you can wait until the Fall after the leaves are all gone take a really powerful laser out at night and see if you can reach it. Even if you have to move 10 feet one way or the other.
The other thing you can do is have someone go out at night to one marker with a really good flashlight, you at other marker with compass to get a bearing. Then you can walk it during the day to make sure you end up at marker. If you don't end up at marker adjust your bearing.
Not perfect but fairly close.

(situation 2) I have two concrete surveyors monument 16' apart. They define a bearing angle that can be projected another 200'. Is there some device that will allow me to trace this line of bearing. I prefer something radio controlled as a laser will be interrupted by intermediate trees. I would like accuracy of at least 2 degrees.

Compass.
