#1: The confluence point lies in this field, near the tank-shaped object

(visited by Ross Finlayson)

28-Aug-2006 -- This confluence is easy to reach - it lies just inside a small farm alongside Myrtle Creek Road (off Highway 42, between Roseburg and Coos Bay, Oregon). Myrtle Creek Road passes less than 200 feet from the confluence point, making a successful visit possible without venturing onto private property. By standing next to the farm's front fence, I was able to get to 189 feet (+/- GPS error) from the confluence point.

The field containing the confluence point is home to some friendly horses, one of which came over to say hi as I was taking photos.
