After 2013-10-26 43 -92, I thought I'd stop by Gutterberg to confirm my suspicion that this one would be either in the river or on an inaccessible protected levee. What I discovered is that, along with a lovely riverside park, the town has twin trails at the top and bottom of the levee both. I got down on the lower trail, and voila! was able to stand at the hashpoint about eight hours before it became the hashpoint. Then, just to keep things surreal, a faux old-style Mississippi Riverboat came around the bend and through the nearby locks.
Since the hashpoint is for reals, I poked around town and found a motel. Then I went for a run on the levee trails, crossing the hashpoint again about six hours before it became the hashpoint. At this writing, it is still about three hours until it becomes the hashpoint.
