Location

Absolutely amazing hash. In a graticule mostly full of nothingness, we get this hash: in Reno, just off the freeway, in a parking lot of a mall. Using the satellite imagery we can even see which parking spot it's in. Jackpot.

Participants

Zebburkeconte (talk) and dad

Plans

Pretty much no plans, looked easy.

Expedition

We drove down in the afternoon and parked in the spot next to the exact spot (the exact spot was a handicapped spot). Then we fiddled around with our iPhones until the GPS told us we were close. According to the GPS, it's around 20 feet from where it looks on the satellite image.

Photos

Photos forthcoming. Trying to work through backlog. --Zebburkeconte (talk)
