Location

Hull's Gulch, in the Boise foothills.

Participants

Plans

The point looked to be accessible, and not terribly far away. So I decided to make a try for it after work.


Expedition

I parked at the trailhead for one of the trails which went relatively near the hashpoint, and set out walking. It was a beautiful day for a hike in the hills, though I do wish I'd had a change of clothes rather than hiking it in my work clothes. It was only about 3/4 of a mile's hike to the spot, but the trail went up a hill, down into a valley, and then back up another hill to get to the spot, so it was a decent workout for such a short hike. At the spot I took some pictures, then headed back.
