First known attempt in the {{PAGENAME}} [[graticule]] was today by [[User:Bos|Bos]], B4Work and roundnroundwego.  Roundnround brought the Jeep.  The try was vaillant but unsuccessful.  [[http://carabiner.peeron.com/xkcd/map/map.html?date=2009-02-22&lat=30&long=-85&zoom=16 Map and satellite imagery]] gave me the impression this would be at worst an easy 0.3 mile walk over well maintained logging roads; maybe even a drive up to within 20 meters.  Woefully wrong, significantly over confident, hopelessly unprepared.  The way was barred by dense vegetation, murky swamps and marsh, and tank trap like water-filled ditches reminiscent of castle motes. Probably easy approach from about 2 miles south was bared by locked gate and no trespassing signs.

 +
Lessons learned: 
 +
Do lots more homework
 +
Arrive early and scout the approach thoroughly
 +
Bring boots at least to the knee for swamp penetration

We'll be back.
