- Looks to be lots of trails around, but the actual spot is about 50' from the nearest one, in a dense clump of trees.
- Unless I miss my guess (always a possibility), the nearest trail should be the April Trail. The geohash appears almost on top of the Powder House historical site; if that's the case, easiest parking is going to be at the Hacienda entrance off Almaden/Alamitos Road. From there, pick up a trail map and take the Mine Hill Trail approximately 1.5 miles (past several other trails, keep a close eye out) until you see the signs for the April Trail or Powder House.
- The last time I was in this park, I hiked near this area and seem to remember a hillside completely covered in poison oak in the Church Hill vicinity. Consider bringing Tecnu.
- Tapin is going to try to be there, but he'll be at the trailhead in the early evening -- 6:45pm-ish if everything goes well.
