Expedition

When I noticed how accessible this one was, I decided to drive out to it. It was a very easy hash, just parked at a closed business about a block away, and walked to the site. Didn't get a great GPS fix, but I was within the circle of uncertainty, and I did get very near to where the spot appears to be from satellite imagery.
