Location

A turnout on Golf Links Road in Oakland.

Participants

Anthony

Expedition

The hashpoint is on a turnout along Golf Links Road in Oakland, which has an exit from I-580, so it's really easy to reach. It's also not a big detour from my usual commute home, so I got it on the way. Unfortunately, I got there at night, and wasn't able to get a picture of anything but the GPS unit, and even that wasn't very good.

I was really unprepared, but left an empty coke bottle with a piece of cardstock inside, with xkcd written on it.

Tracklog

I've posted a KMZ file of this expedition here.

-I got the hashes on November 25th and 28th - I'll post the details sometime this week. The 26th was on a turnout on Golf Links Road in Oakland, and the 28th was at the Bay Bridge Toll Plaza. Probably 5,000 to 10,000 people went through the 28th's hashpoint that day. Anthony 14:18, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
