#1: The confluence point is just beside this dirt road

(visited by Ross Finlayson)

30-Jun-2006 -- As other visitors have noted, this is a very easy confluence - lying just to the side of a dirt road. The dirt road (and the confluence) apparently lies within private land. After I arrived, I was met by the property owner (riding a dirt bike). I'm not sure he fully understood my explanation of the Degree Confluence Project (or the significance of his property!), but he let me park there nonetheless.

The countryside here is pretty and rustic. To the East and South lies a fertile valley. To the West lies the 11,000 foot "Hole in the Mountain Peak".
