Location

In the coast range about 3 miles off of the road through the nearest pass, and a ways east of Beaver, Oregon. There are NFD roads which come closer, but those tend to be of very questionable accessibility this time of year.

Plans

I plan to start my drive sometime around 9AM. According to the Google, it will take about 2 hours drive time to get there. I am assuming that it will be a 3.5 mile hike or so each way, since I can't drive up the NFD roads beyond the main one crossing the pass. That should put me at the hashpoint around noon or so. I will need to take the OR-6 pass to get across the coast range, because the NFD 85 pass rises above the snow level, and is unlikely to be accessible for my car.

I'd join you, except I have folks coming in to work in our server room earlier in the morning, and I'm certain we won't be done by 9AM. Have fun! Jiml 12:44, 7 January 2011 (EST)

Expedition

APR reports that he's on a mountain in the Coast Range, so he's at least halfway there Jiml 15:09, 8 January 2011 (EST)

APR can now report he got as close as 0.12 miles away from the hashpoint. No more reports until APR is less tired. --aperfectring 19:56, 8 January 2011 (EST)
