Location

On a path near York Mills subway station.

Participants

Frogman

Expedition

I was at an event for grad students, so I didn't end up leaving for this geohash until very late. I figured that I might be able to get the midnight achievement. I was! I headed up Line 1 to York Mills station, which is apparently inside a mall. It was then a short walk to the hashpoint. I waited the extra four or so minutes to get the midnight achievement, and then went home.

Photos

Not much time left in the day!
Almost to York Mills
The hashpoint is up this path.
Made it!
Goofy grin
