Near a "parking area" in Washington Park

Participants

Plans

Go by later on in the day.

Expedition

5000s

I'm gonna guess this didn't end any better for JimL than it did for us.

Jim

(Yup - it didn't!)

So, according to the satellite views of Google Maps, this hash point should have been in the middle of a parking area in Washington Park. I arrived close to the area and hit construction right away, so I looped around, thinking nothing of it.

But after circling 3 times around the area where the hashpoint should have been, looking for a roadway that was supposed to get me there, I finally realized that the huge construction site on the side of the road was probably right on top of the hashpoint and the surrounding former parking area.

I gave up and headed home.

5000s

Yup. Same story. We walked up to the park, but were daunted by gates. Then we circled around in the truck. And then we gave up and went to get Ethiopian food.
