Participants

Buttercup and
Buttercup's brother

Plans

Drive to location since it is near the side of the road. Park on a side street and walk the rest of the way!

Expedition

A success!!

The point was just off the main road and down a steep hill. We braved the snow and cold temperatures trying to find it. Without a GPS, a smart phone was our only option and it took a while to get our bearings.
