Remove this section if you don't want an image at the top (left) of your report.  You should remove the "Image:" or "File:"
 
tag from your image file name, and replace the all upper-case word IMAGE in the above line.
 
 
And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

*Ok, I'm someplace warmer now, so here's the more complete write-up. The geohash was just off of a narrow dirt road running between an irrigation canal and a plowed field. Missed the dirt road turn off the first time and had to go back. Was able to drive to within 20ft of the geohash location. Arrived at approximately 4:30pm Actual location was about half way down a slippery slope, so while I was able to slide across it, I was actually standing about 12ft away when I took pictures and posted my initial comment while onsite. My phone was both the only camera and only GPS device I had, so I didn't get a picture of the GPS screen. However, the photo of me is geotagged, which serves as the only proof I have that I was in the right place. I've posted the full EXIF information from the photo in lieu of a tracklog, since the metadata displayed on the site doesn't show the actual coordinates from the photo.
