About

Expedition

NWoodruff

This was a nice ride though some back roads. I ended up having to find my own way with out the help of any map because Google didn't know about a bridge that had been out for what appears to be some time.

I parked at the end of the street. I met the home owner in his front yard. I explained Geohashing a bit and he seemed confused by it. I showed him on the map of where I was trying to get to and he said that it wasn't his property. He said that is property only extended back 100 feet.

I asked if he minded that I walk on his property to get to the point I was trying to access and he said that he didn't mind.

I found the hash point, took a few pictures and then made my way back to the street. The home owner was already gone at that time. I left him direction on how to find this web site and the google map print out of his property in his mail box.

I then made the trip back to Norcross.
