Location

In a pond near Hwy 26 in Beaverton

Participants

Plans

I was planning on being nearby today, so I'll wander over, at least to the edge of the pond and see what I can see.

Expedition

I got the pond and put on my boots in preparation to try to get to the hashpoint.

I marched through a lot of blackberry, and then found myself at a 4 foot dropoff due to some sort of wall, I believe. When I looked off in the 300 feet to the hashpoint, I realized there was also a wire fence between me and the hashpoint, so there didn't seem to be much point in trying to get down the dropoff. I gave up and headed on to my next task.
