Location

In Washington, ME, just off the road, to the east of a residence. Farther east, but not visible, is a lake.

Participants

Del, who added a bunch of the Maine graticules way back when and finally got around to doing a run.

Plans

Del decided late in the day that it would be fun to Just Do It. Next time he'll try to be more organized.

Expedition

Del was heading to a rehearsal of the annual Conductor's Retreat and noticed that the hash was not far away. So he left early to do the hash during daylight. Arrived around 7pm, parked on the other side of the road, and wandered into the yard. The GPS - just a car-based TomTom GO-510 - didn't like walking, so based on home research, the location was really-really close.

Next time should be with a group; solo wasn't all that interesting.
