Central Lake Houston East (CLH XE)

The “Central Lake Houston” caches are denoted by cache names CLH XE, CLH XC, CLH XW, & Lake Houston Islands (LHI X) depending on which section of the lake they lie in. The area is bounded to the north and east by the merger of Luce Bayou into Lake Houston, to the south by the FM1960 Bridge, and to the west by the West Lake Houston Bridge.  Depending on which group of caches you are after determines the best launch point.
