Location

A farmer's field east of Grandview, north of Prosser.

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Expedition

After wrapping up a long weekend, I was headed back to Seattle and this geohash was on the way. Satellite looked like a farmer's field, so not a lot of hope to actually achieve this one.

Easily reached a nearby spot on the road and indeed, this is a hop field and they were either tending or harvesting at that moment. I took a few pictures and then headed out.

On the way, I stopped at the twice relocated historical site for Teapot Dome Service Station. Perhaps the best information on the web for this is at Roadside America.
