Location
The point is under some high-voltage wires a mile or so north of Ludlow, CA.
Participants
AeroIllini, visiting from Seattle.
Plans
Expedition
AeroIllini arrived in mid-morning to discover that the dirt road leading to the point was a bit sandier than his rental vehicle could handle. Abandoning the stuck car for the moment, the Expedition proceeded to the point on foot. Several photos were taken under the ominous hum of the high-voltage wires.
During the return trip, a wooden plank was discovered on the side of the dirt road. After digging out the sand and jamming the plank under the stuck tire, the vehicle was rocked free and carefully driven back to the comforting embrace of paved roads.
Multihash achieved! See 2016-05-01 34 -117 for the first point.
Virgin Graticule achieved! AeroIllini had the first recorded geohash Expedition in 34,-116.
