This graticule is mostly water. A decent amount of the national forest the hashpoint was in is marsh or swamp, but the satmap suggested we would have 150 m of dry pine woods between road and target, so we tried it.

In fact it was easy. The woods were pleasant with little underbrush and the main barriers were the occasional spiderweb. There was a definite possibility of snakes but we saw just one discarded snakeskin. It took us about 10 minutes in the woods to find the hashpoint and about 5 minutes to walk back out.

This appears to be a virgin graticule, at least according to Charleston, South Carolina so we're claiming it as such. That claim is subject to revision.
