Location

By Geohash Droid, I expected this to be in a back access alley in the Snoqualmie Ridge development in Snoqualmie. It turned out to be in someone's back yard. However, the yard was closed off by a board fence, so no-one realized I was wandering around out there. };-)

Participants

Just me, Basil

Plans

There weren't what you could call plans. I realized I hadn't done any geohashing for a long time (car troubles and money troubles), so I fired up good ol' Geohash Droid, and realized today's spot was practically next door. So, on the spur of the moment I decided to 'hash.

Expedition

It was pretty simple, really. Just leave the gizmo on, and head out.

I did have a small problem when I got there: Geohash Droid doesn't have a compass, and I kept going 180° to the direction I should've been going. But, in the end, I found the right alley and tromped along to as close as I could get.

I took a few pictures, and headed home. No biggy, really, although the heat was pretty uncomfortable.
