A patch of Lake Elizabeth located on the South Eastern side. This part of Lake Elizabeth was never developed due to a large population of homeless people. A walkway was scheduled to be built that would take pedestrians through the foliage areas of Lake Elizabeth. However, those who called the area home revolted against the development and the walkway was never completed. It gained the nickname Hobo Jungle by local Fremont residents. The nearby railroads allow convenient transportation for those who reside there.

An incident of rape occurred here and police tape lingered well past the scene of the crime. Also a dead body of a transient was found by local students on a field trip.

Do not go here at night, do not go here to disturb the people who live here, and do not go unless you have a strong desire to. Knapsacks hang from the trees and hand made signs warn outsiders to stay away.
