Near Timber, Oregon, Slightly south of Hwy 26, on a logging road.

I decided to go, sent out an email, and created an expedition page. I also printed out the Google Maps page, and figured out the coordinates of the logging road intersections.
Expedition
This was an interesting hashpoint to get to. Once again, I found myself on a logging road in the Oregon forests.
Access to the road near the hashpoint was pretty easy, as the logging road was open and there weren't a lot of turns to get there.
The hashpoint was close to the road, but not quite as close as I thought. I should have changed footwear before heading into the woods, but I didn't. I ended up getting further from the road than I expected, and it would have been sensible to head back to change footwear, but I was too close to the hashpoint to be sensible. "Stupidity Distance" strikes again.
I finally got close enough to the hashpoint, and took some pictures and headed out before too many small velociraptors found me.
