Sienna Plantation is a master planned community in the Houston suburb of Missouri City. Originally part of Stephen F. Austin's "Old Three Hundred" colony settlement, the land was first settled by Captain William Hall and Captain David Fitzgerald, who, in 1824, located their farms on the bank of the Brazos River. Ownership changed hands over the years and the name became Sienna Plantation, a name that reflects the rich alluvial soil of the area that is the color of sienna, the color of a great sunset. Sienna Plantation has many attractions, including Camp Sienna, which provides recreational opportunities and a trail to a scenic overlook of the Brazos River, where this box is located. This box has a new stamp and relocated from the first box so should be considered a new find.

Directions:
From Hwy 59, exit Hwy 6 and go south for approximately 6 miles to Sienna Parkway. Turn right and go about 3 miles to Scanlan Trace. Turn right and go about 1 mile to Camp Sienna Trail. Turn right and go another mile to Camp Sienna. Go left at the round-about and park at the far south end in lot #11 by the basketball court.

Go right to boardwalk for overlook then come back 23 steps to side trail on right. Go left instead on faint path in woods for 10 steps, then right 5 steps to small tree with vine on it.
