Location

In a fenced cow pasture outside of Petaluma.

Participants

Plans

Head over sometime after lunch. The nearby road looks easily reachable, but satellite images suggest a fence.

Expedition

It was a clear, sunny day. Aside from a wrong turn followed by a small dog blocking traffic in Penngrove, we arrived mostly uneventfully at the low point of Manor Ln shortly before 13:40. There were indeed fences along both sides of the road, so rather than cross them to reach the hashpoint we instead stopped the car and walked to the closest accessible point. Unfortunately, that was still about 72m from the hashpoint. Photos were taken anyway, and the view on the way back down the hill was enjoyed.
