Location

By the side of the road in Orono, Ontario, Canada.

Participants

FelixTheCat (talk)
Kat the Awesome

Expedition

Kat and I were on a two-week road trip through eastern Canada. On our second-to-last day we finally had a hashpoint close to our planned route and on publicly accessible land. So we took the required ten-minute detour on our way to Toronto, carefully pulled up to the point, and sadly discovered that it was in someone's front yard. And it wasn't simply on the lawn either: it looked like we'd have to go crawl under some trees and bushes to get there. Neither of us felt like ringing the doorbell and asking for such a weird thing, so we decided to let this one go and continued on our journey.

Photos

Ochonski Road looks like a typical rural road in this area.
It's a bit hilly, and there are houses here and there.
We've stopped in front of the hash. The point is somewhere behind that big tree.
The closest we got was about 18 metres.
Lloyd is disappointed.

Achievements

FelixTheCat (talk) and Kat earned the No trespassing consolation prize

by almost (18 m) reaching the (43, -78) geohash on 2024-09-29.
