Location

South slope of Green Mountain in Clark County, Washington approximately 500 feet from the nearest road (Headland Road)

Participants

Plans

The original plan was to drive as far as possible, then park my car on the side of the road and hike the remaining distance to the point.

Expedition

I left home around 1430, hopping on 26 east to I5 north, and crossed into Washington. Got off I5 at exit 11 near Battleground, and then took a series of progressively smaller and more rural roads, for about 45 minutes. The drive was actually quite beautiful, past tree farms, cow and other livestock farms, and through some old growth temperate rain forest. Eventually I ended up on a gravel road, and came to a posted No Trespassing sign, with only about a mile to go until I could park and hike. I decided to turn around at this point.

Photos

Turned around when I saw this.

Achievements

Shmur earned the No trespassing consolation prize

by almost reaching the (45, -122) geohash on 2015-05-24.
