I drove to the first house and parked. There was no one home so I continued up
the driveway/Webb Road to the next house and got permission to check out the
area. High point area #4 is beyond this second house, about 0.2 mile north and
left of the road. High point area #5 is 0.1 mile northwest of #4 along a short ridge.
Continuing up the road about 0.2 mile, there's another hill, high point area #6,
to the right of the road. I returned to the second house, then headed
southeast over two bumps to high point area #7 in about 0.3 mile.
All walking was easy, either along Webb Road or across grassy fields.
