Macon County High Point Trip Report
Date: July 2, 2001
Author: John Mitchler
We used Jon Mann's report. I measured 2.8 miles versus his 2.6 on Washington Road. The house number is
3740 (nobody was home). The topo map shows a "fenceline" extending south from the house. There is no
fence, however, the line separates two fields; soybeans to the east and 7-foot corn to the west.
Expanded directions from the north: From I-74, south of Bloomington, go south on US51 for 29 miles to
Maroa (south of Clinton). Then go 2.8 miles west on Washington Street (CR58 or 2600N), passing
Oakland Rd, Janvirn Rd, and Bearsdale Rd before coming to a house on the right (north) and the HP on the
left (south).
General Comment: This rise is located in flat central Illinois farmland. Enough said.
