Location

A patch of woods behind a suburb in Joliet, Illinois, U.S.A.

Participants

EvilUncleNomo and The Wife

Plans

EvilUncleNomo and The Wife are planning on attempting this geohash Saturday afternoon. Hopefully there will be no swamp hiding in the forest this time.

Expedition

We braved a low income neighborhood (and The Wife braved stomach flu) to get to this geohash. At first it looks like we were stymied by a No Trespassing sign, but we tried approaching from another direction and we were able to get to the target without encountering any more signs.
