Location

It's reachable, and in Macedon/Palmyra, just ESE of Rochester.
Coordinates: (43.0374870832648067, -77.2812664767643918).

...which puts it south of Macedon near the end of a cul-de-sac.

Location reached - more details and pictures from home. --DavidF

The location was reached by 5 people. Since the actual site was on a "posted" (no trespassing) empty lot that was up for sale, only 3 people went out for the brief trek. En route to the location, we came upon a treehouse/deer lookout. When you find something like that, there is only one thing to do: climb it! The group went out to a local diner for milkshakes and food afterwards.

BRING GAMES!

Anyone have a portable chess set or something? -Cogit0

Yessir, I'll bring a (cheap) chess set ~~and a standard deck of playing cards~~! My chess rating is like 900 though. Hehehehe. -danierrr

I always have playing cards and can bring poker chips. --DavidF

Anything around Macedon/Palmyra to do? Eastview Mall (*naive*)?
