Location

On Zion Church Road northwest of Hillsboro.

Participants

Plans

I woke up feeling lazy and decided to play hooky. Hadn't done a geohash in about nine months, and, well, one thing led to another.

Expedition

For a narrow farm road with not much going on in the way of a shoulder, Zion Church Road is pretty damn busy on a weekday morning. I went across the hashpoint four times without really feeling like it was safe to stop, led alone chalk up the road or anything else. The photo is looking east bound, and I pushed the button as I saw 0.0 on my GPS.

Photos

View from the Hashpoint.
Sign at the nearest intersection.
