Indiana State Road 236


Recommended Posts

I had little to do on this cold, post snowy Sunday. Well, check that, I had plenty to do here in the house, but there wasn't any of it I actually "wanted" to do. :rolleyes: I had a geocache to replace out in North Salem, so I decided to get that done today and do a "coast to coast" trip on the entire length...all 41 miles...of Indiana State Road 236. It was a chilly day, as it was in the upper teens/low 20's all day after a 2" snowfall Saturday throughout most of the state.

 

Mobilene thinks that it doesn't get any more obscure than IN-42. Well, I think I trumped him on 236! :lol: Details of this journey can be found here, and the rest of the photo shoot can be found here.

Neat road trip report. Shows you don't have to travel across a bunch of states (no slam intended Denny - love your "multi-state" reports as well :D ) to produce an interesting road report. I've done a couple of those here out of Memphis and one of these days I've got to post them on my web site.

Thanks for the replies, gents! I figure if it's a looooong winter like it was last winter, I'll be doing a lot more of these to keep my sanity. There are plenty of roads in this state that have a story to tell, so I'll do what I can.....along with Jim.....to get these dudes up on search engines.

 

Jim -- State Road 134!!! Wow, that thing's practically in my own backyard and I forgot all about it! Of course when the road's not longer than 1/2 mile, it's bound to be forgotten. Delorme shows it going from US 136 all the way down to US 40. Not sure if that's how far it went, but I know today it doesn't even reach 21st Street.

I guess I'm a little late. I was actually planning to out-obscure you both by doing State Road 134, but here you go and raise it out of obscurity before I could.

 

Oh well,

Chris
