Expedition

A geohash in a parking lot is an easy one to find without a GPS because it's possible to orient via the parking spaces and islands, which are visible in Google Satellite View. We drove over there and found the site pretty easily, and the kids marked the parking lot with chalk. The site has two somewhat interesting older buildings, which are now condemned, as well as the newer building which is still in use.
