Expedition

A gravel section of Ford Loop Road gets within 450 feet of the hashpoint. From aerial imagery, I expected a stroll through a meadow followed by bushwhacking through forest, but it was the opposite: the "meadow" has sprouted into dense brush, scrub, and young trees since the satellites last passed through, and the forest was thin, open, and rather lovely. The football-field's worth of bushwhacking didn't feel great on my legs after the adventures of earlier in the day (2010-08-28 46 -123), but I got out without too many new cuts and scratches.
