Location

In somebody's driveway on 3rd Street in Umatilla, Oregon, underneath a pile of stuff left over from a moving sale.

Participants

Michael5000

Expedition

I was heading back towards Portland, and thought I'd check the hashpoints just for auld lang syne. And by gum, there was a perfectly accessible hashpoint, hardly out of the way at all.

The house at the hashpoint had had a moving sale over the weekend, but it was over by the time I got there. There was a pile of stuff directly on the hashpoint, apparently the stuff that they hadn't been able to sell.

I had forgotten how much fun it is to approach a hashpoint! Also, what a pain in the rear it is to edit a report in this wiki!

Photos

I was too late for the moving sale, and I didn't see any slow children.
The hashpoint was buried under that pile of stuff by the trailer. I didn't dig down to it.
I guess this is the stuff that didn't get bought at the moving sale.

Achievements

Land Geohash
My first expedition to the Hermiston graticule
