Have you seen our geohashing marker? We'd love to hear from you! Click here to say "hi" and tell us what you've seen!

Curious about what geohashing is? Read more!

Location

A forested lot near Meadowdale (or is it Beverly Acres?) in Lynnwood.

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Stop by after work.

Expedition

Aerial image scouting (google and bing) didn't give me a lot of hope for this geohash point. The actual location seems to be close to the side of a building (google) and in heavy trees on a hillside (both).

Reaching the block, I saw this was indeed the case. While there was a car parked nearby, it didn't look as though anyone was home, so I snapped a few pictures of the area and posted a sign near some mailboxes. With luck, the homeowner scoped the spot out themselves (buried treasure?).

Based on the site survey, I'm not sure this point would be accessible without a machete even with permission of the homeowner...
