Location
In a field north of Yale Road, between Annis Road and Agassiz.
Participants
Plans
I really had no plans for this expedition. I was working in Abbotsford, finished up early, went to drive a little further east to get gas, and decided on the spur of the moment to drive even further out to Chilliwack!
Expedition
I missed my first turn off the highway at Annis Road, so I ended up continuing on to Bridal Falls. Backtracked a little, but it wasn't too difficult to get to the hash.
The hashpoint turned out to be at a tree farm of sorts. I parked in the lot out front, and since I didn't see any sort of No Trespassing sign, I decided to take a peek around. It looked like high winds had been in the area recently, as many of the trees seemed to have fallen over in their pots.
After a bit of circling through very wet clay, I located the hashpoint, beside the edge of where the trees were clustered together. Had it been warmer and drier outside, I might have continued exploring the open field further back from the road, but as it was, I was just glad to claim the Multihash and head back home!
