Juventas traveled south of Lavington to the Aberdeen Lake forestry service road. After driving 24km of gravel road he headed eastward on a recreational off-roading trail and stopped after about 1km. He proceeded on the trail by foot for about 250m until encountering swamp surrounding one of the Specs Lakes. With a storm rolling in, he decided not to continue, but captured a picture 200m from the coordinates. The coordinates can be clearly seen in the gap in the trees, 20m from the shoreline.
