Location

In the middle of a road. Thankfully there was a median at the exact hashpoint!

Participants

  • Srs0 and his Mother.

Plans

We were travelling to Niagara Falls, and there happened to be a hashpoint less than half a kilometer from the highway that we would be taking anyways. Who could say no? As such, we decided to do a Mother's Day geohash!

Expedition

Original message (from my phone):

  • Geohash reached! Details to follow. Off to Niagara Falls now. -Srs0 09:09, 8 May 2011 (EDT)

As mentioned in the plan, we were going to Niagara Falls. On the way, we paid a quick visit to the middle of Maple Avenue.

There's really not much to report, as it was such a simple geohash. I am surprised that the hashpoint was actually on the median of the road, but that made it remarkably convenient to reach.
