After tending to some errands etc, we found our way to Grimes Rd. There was some concern that it would be a private road, or that we would otherwise not be able to reach the point, but everything went great. I stepped out of the car, walked to the point, which was in fact right on the road, waved my phone in the air until I got a good reading, walked along the road for a bit just to account for any error in the GPS reading, then got back in the car and left.

Location

Along Grimes Rd., a small road on the outskirts of Keene, New Hampshire

Participants

Cibachrome
Cibachrome's Dad

Plans

I was already headed out that way today with my dad, so the plan was to bother him to drive to the hashpoint (easily accessible, on a road near where we were for once!).

Expedition

After tending to some errands etc, we found our way to Grimes Rd. There was some concern that it would be a private road, or that we would otherwise not be able to reach the point, but everything went great. I stepped out of the car, walked to the point, which was in fact right on the road, waved my phone in the air until I got a good reading, walked along the road for a bit just to account for any error in the GPS reading, then got back in the car and left.
