Location

On the side of a road in the back of the Washington Park Zoo

Participants

Plans

I had something in the evening, but figured I'd go by afterwards.

Expedition

I finished up for the evening, and then went by. It looked accessible, but as I got closer, I saw a lot of fences, which I think actually surround the Elephant pen, or maybe construction for a new one.

But then a little pullout on the side of the road appeared. I pulled into it to figure out which way to go and the GPS said 21 feet, so I declared it done, especially before people started wondering what this car was doing wandering round near there.
