Expedition

We were traveling down the Oregon Coast with Ma5000, whose recent exploits prove that she is no stranger to geohashing. However, this one required a little more walking than she was up for, so she chilled out in the car while we took a seven or eight minute walk down the railroad track from the crossing at Hauser Junction.

Walking on a railroad line sometimes carries a frisson of danger, but since this rail line probably sees, what, a train a week? ...and since recent storms had left all manner of tree limbs across the tracks, so that a maintenance crew will clearly need to swing through before the next actual train does, we were about as likely to be struck by a locomotive on this expedition as we would be in our own living room. But it was still kind of fun to be on the tracks.
