Plans

Don't know when we're going to be there, but I'm planning on going sometime! Rex Wolf (talk) 13:19, 8 November 2013 (EST)

Expedition

We did indeed drive out to the hashpoint, a little earlier than I had anticipated. (This was a good thing, since we ended up going out to the Olympic hashpoint as well right after!)

Hashpoint turned out to be located in some woods, all right. So far, all "woods" I've planned on entering have turned out to be crowded and choked with underbrush, so I'm going to have to start planning on that from now on. There was a simple bar gate across the way, but only meant to keep out vehicles. It looks kind of like a cell site might be a little bit to the west of the hashpoint, but we didn't go nosing around to figure that out.

We got some very odd looks upon stumbling out of the underbrush from a local who seemed to be out walking his dog. Hazard of geohashing!
