This geohash in [[Austin, Texas]] is located on the (non-existent) shoulder of east-bound US 290 near Paige, TX. The tall grass, high-speed traffic, and the unlevel and unpaved shoulder made slowing down from 70 to 0 mph the most challenging and dangerous part of reaching this otherwise simple geohash.
