Location
A corn field (go figure) across the highway from Maxwell Park, a disc golf course where I found one of my favorite puzzle geocaches called Night Signals back in September.
Participants
Plans
I'm heading home to Milwaukee from St. Louis where I've been working this week. This will be one of two hashpoints I can reach on the way home.
Expedition
I may have been speeding a little in order to get to the first hash while the sun was still up. The moon was clearly visible as I parked.
Since it's a corn field without grown corn and a recent rain, it was a little squishy as I made my way to the hash. As best I could I stepped on old stalks and the like.
After snapping a few pictures, I hustled back to the car. Once I got there I realized I hadn't snapped screen shots of my GPS! Frak!
I wasn't about to run back through that, so my GPS log will have to do.
On to the next one!
Tracklog
My GPS tracklog is available in GPX and KMZ formats.
