Location

In a driveway off Spadina Road just north of Eglinton.

Participants

Frogman

Expedition

This was a pretty short and easy one. I took the subway to Eglinton West and then the 32 bus to Gardiner Road and walked the rest of the way. I stopped to admire the beautiful new station building at Chaplin, which will serve Line 5 Eglinton if it ever opens (there is no public timeline for this), and then walked up to the hashpoint. It was on a quiet residential street, and there were some locals eyeing me suspiciously so I did not hang about long. I snapped a couple pictures and then walked home.

Achievements
