About this Location

This is private water company property. There is a resident at the top of the hill who is very sensitive about people looking over at his property, and it's important that we stay clear of his property. He has complained to the water company and we don't want our access to be curtailed because of such complaints. Some people refer to this location as on Mayfair Avenue, but technically, it's not.
