Location

About 20 feet off the side of FM 3040 in Lewisville. 3040 is a fairly built up road, but this hash happened to be in a gap in the development near an overpass.

Participants

Neimster

Expedition

Upon arriving in the area, I realized the only way to get to the location would be to park on the opposite side of the overpass. After venturing underneath it, I spotted a creek and decided it was probably a better idea to cross the bridge itself. The location was reached shortly afterward.

Photos

Not always a vile and wretched place.
There's a creek hiding behind that grass. I guess I can't get through this way.
Time to turn back.
I did it.
Proof.
A quick panorama I took on my phone at the hash facing away from the road.
