Participants
Expedition
The hashpoint showed up just at the edge of a green area on the street map, making me optimistic that it could be reached without crossing private property.
It took two tries. I first parked on Charlevoix Drive SE, where it crosses the green area. At that point a very unwelcoming Private Property sign blocked my access.
I decided to drive around and try from the other side of the hashpoint. This required about 1 km of driving to actually move about 100 m. From there I was able to enter the woods with no violation of No Trespassing signs and work my way by a U-shaped path to the hashpoint. The only creature I encountered was a hawk who was clearly not too happy about my presence; he screeched several times from his perch 25 m or so above me.
First approach,
encountering barrier,
resulting in frown.
Second approach,
no obvious legal barrier,
annoying this hawk,
resulting in Proof.
