Location

The hash is located in a field out in the middle of nowhere just off CA-70.

Participants

Expedition

We drove out there, and when we saw how close it was to the highway, I thought we had hit the jackpot. However, once we started going to it we realized that the road that Google Maps said would take us there was really someone's driveway. We drove down it, but we were basically in this guy's backyard. He didn't look too friendly, and he had a dog. In the end we only got within 0.3 miles.
