Zach Golkhou (ASU), and Vicki Toy (UMD) report: We observed the field of the Fermi GRB 160816A (Mailyan, et al., GCN 19804) with the Reionization and Transients Infrared Camera (RATIR; www.ratir.org) on the 1.5m Harold Johnson Telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir from 2016/08 19.16 to 2016/08 19.50 UTC (2.43 to 2.77 days after the GBM trigger), obtaining a total of 5.58 hours exposure in the r and i bands and 4.56 hours exposure in the Z and J bands. For the source reported in Troja, et al. (GCN 19809), in comparison with the USNO-B1 and 2MASS catalogs, we obtain the following detections: r 23.45 +/- 0.15 i 23.18 +/- 0.12 Z 22.64 +/- 0.12 J 22.37 +/- 0.16 These magnitudes are in the AB system and are not corrected for Galactic extinction in the direction of the GRB.
