Location

In the desert just to the east of the fence line of the Southern California Logistics Airport in Victorville, CA.

Participants

AeroIllini

Plans

Expedition

AeroIllini, while visiting Victorville on a business trip from Seattle, stopped by the point in the early afternoon to snap a few photos.

Travel method was via rental car on roads around the airport that became increasingly less paved with proximity to the point, and then by foot in the last 1000 feet or so.

In the area, a line of tires was found, as well as a wooden structure, a fire pit shielded by a wall of tires, and some other evidence of human activity.

This was the first point in a Consecutive Hash Achievement. See 2016-05-01 34 -117 for the next expedition.
