I did see a post mentioning that there appears to be an abandoned roadbed 
through the slough; one would hate to see that leak through into a GPS, or 
into OSM. 

How often do folks find abandoned roads in OSM? I had to tag a bunch along 
the Fox River here in the Chicago area, as the land was bought up by the 
government after repeated floods kept wiping houses out. TIGER apparently 
hadn't caught up yet (surprise!).
