Expedition
After flying to Phoenix last Sunday and nabbing that day's local hashpoint, I spent a week doing software training things. When my class ended today, I headed south to Tucson, then continued east on I-10 as far as the small desert town of Willcox. From there, State Road 186 headed south across the flats and then into some hills, through a tiny village with the delightful name of Dos Cabezas, and on to where I turned left onto Apache Pass Road.
It's a dirt road, but I'd found a website earlier in the day that had promised that it was "suitable for passenger cars for its entire length," and that certainly proved true for its westmost five miles. I only saw two other vehicles using it, both of which passed me at the hashpoint with the drivers giving me puzzled glances: what a random, remote, not-particularly-scenic place to stop. Well, that's geohashing for you.
