Okay, I'm lame. The geohash was right along the route where I was going anyway.
The geohash was in the woods off I-78. It was less than 100 feet off the road. But I was in a hurry, and had promises to keep, miles to go before I sleep, yada yada yada.
Is it true that this user earned the Speed Racer Achievement?
