Expedition
So yesterday I was at work and a data scientist was presenting on a topic that included GeoHashes.
That sparked my interest in geohashing, and I popped open a couple of the tools, strategized with my girlfriend, and we agreed to try this expedition.
Once we got close it was a little bit tricky because it seemed like we might have been on private property, but luckily the signs indicated that it was a county property for a therapeutic horse riding farm. since we are residents of the county, I felt like we had a right to be there. We made our way along some power lines and fences of other equestrian farms, and we made it to the spot without much drama.
Once we got to the woods, we got lucky again because there was a path in the woods that got us to within about 20 m of the hash point.
Great success!
