Location

Portland's east side, near a front lawn along a residential street.

Participants

Jim

Plans

I'll go by and see how close I can get. I printed out the Google maps, and attempted to program the GPS in the dark as I walked to the car.

Expedition

Well, I finally finished up the work I was doing with folks in Asia, and headed off to the hashpoint. The directions from Google Maps didn't match the roadways very well, so I gave up and just took Hwy 30 aways and then turned when the GPS told me to go to the right. (I did remember I needed 15th street.)

I got close and parked and proceeded on foot. I was within 10 meters from the sidewalk, but I tried walking up the walkway and I got a bit closer, but I didn't want to trample the front lawn.

More details and photos will follow.
