Location

This hash is located on the road, making for a perfect Speed racer achievement. It is located on Lockhart Hwy out in the boondocks of York, near the center of the northern part of the grat. Google maps shows it just off the road in maps view, but in the road in satellite view. I'd go with the latter.

Planning

Crazycaveman is planning on making the run out here right after work. It'll be about an hours drive (probably less tho... speed racer achievement lol).

Participants

Expedition

Crazycaveman

I reached the coordinates around 5:53, shortly before my 6 o'clock target. It was a good, uneventful drive and it was nice to back in the area. I love driving on country roads, it's very relaxing. The drive was a lot quicker than I thought it would be, but I guess that's to be expected. I don't have a GPS, but according to Google Maps, I passed right through the hashpoint. Maybe I can talk some people into going with me next time...
