Location

On the edge of a rural Arkansas field near West Memphis and the Tennessee border.

Participants

Planning

  • Haberdasher is tentatively planning to hit this hash in the late afternoon or evening while heading down to school in the Conway graticule. Any Memphis/West Memphis hashers interested in a meet-up, get in touch!

Expedition

On the way down to school, my parents and I drove by this one, going a bit out of our way to check out this hashpoint in rural Arkansas. However, though we tried two separate routes heading towards the hashpoint (and got some strange looks from locals in the process), our efforts were all in vain. As it happens, the second attempt made it clear that the road right next to the hashpoint was itself a private road; it was not that a different route might have ensured success, but that, unless we disobeyed the No Trespassing signs, the quest was fruitless to begin with. At least it got us out exploring small-town Arkansas and off the highway for a bit.
