Location

On private property about 500 feet from my normal commute.

Participants

Plans

Get as close to the hash as possible, and then run away.

Expedition

I had no idea how accurate my plans were. I didn't even get out of the car, and I certainly didn't dare drive up the private driveway to get closer to the point. This one goes under attempted, and was not a success. There was a very specific "No Trespassing" sign that somehow made me think that no one was welcome.

Photos

Disturbingly specific sign
Nice view, at least
Rather pretty, actually
A bit hilly
Fail proof

Achievements

Lucky91xj earned the No trespassing consolation prize

by almost (390.1 ft) reaching the (38, -120) geohash on 2013-04-25.
