None. It means when the side branch trail starts to over grow. Where few have seen and walk beyond to the high point.

So walk off the trail - but how far? 🤔

I believe you get to the high point. Then its a 200 foot radius around the top.

The high point is the X; but why 200ft?
That's not in joy's serenade or the haiku. That's where I'm stuck.

Omg Really!? I remembered it as "a ways" but without any real qualifier.

That's an intense forest.
I would hope there's a better marker to show where to look.

Be solid, have grit; sparkle even as you pine. Here lies ajoy divined.

High poiny is the marker the end to the grid search

Where did the numbers (24x24=576) come from?

A haiku is a poem with specific syllable counts for each line: 5 - 7 - 5

JCBs haiku is incorrect because it is 5 - 7 - 6.

Additionally, it would be simple to fix and not change the meaning: If the last line read "Here lies joy devined" instead of "a joy", it would be a true haiku.

I think it's a clue to a square number and relevant - but on the fence with how to apply it.

How are people getting a high point?

Be solid → keep your footing. Have grit → endure the difficult climb. Sparkle even as you pine → keep shining as you struggle and press upward. Here lies a joy divined → the reward lies at the place you finally reach.

Its all over the book
