Near a clearing in Skinner State Park, Hadley, Massachusetts.
Participants
Expedition
Todd and Phoebe drove from Florence to Skinner State Park. The gate was closed, so they parked in the lot and took the longer way in by trail. The trail was mostly clear of snow except a couple small stretches. It lead to within about a hundred feet of the geohash. There was a stream of water running over the leaves because it had recently rained. As they neared the point it seemed that it was going to be on the other side of a barbed wire fence. It probably was, but they were within an acceptable distance of about 30 feet (and likely also the accuracy range of the GPS), so they declared this a victory and sat down to a picnic of salad, vegetarian sushi, and miso soup.
