There was an open gate near BM 4134, just east of highway 17. The house 1/4 mile to the east was occupied, but the dirt road continued right past it, through another unlocked gate, and on towards the HP.

Unfortunately, the resident of the house - a tough looking cowboy toting a rifle, would not give the OK for me to drive this road - in fact preferred that I locate myself off the property. I asked if he was the owner, and he informed me that Emmett McCoy of San Marcos (?) TX is the man to contact for permission.

Emmett is on switchboard.com with the street address Emmett F McCoy, 6001 Lime Kiln Rd, San Marcos, TX 78666. Tel (512) 353-8771.
