Location

This Geohash is located near Lost River State Park.

Participants

OfficeLinebacker

Plans

This one is going to be a stretch given the amount of daylight left. But I will at least explore the area -- OfficeLinebacker (talk) @38.9091,-78.0328 16:50, 20 April 2020 (EDT)

Expedition

I did make it to the area but could only get to within about two miles of the point, and with fading light and no clear public easement, I gave up. I did have a ball driving around the mountains though. Alas, my Geohash Droid app is acting up so no pictures as of now, but the scenery is GORGEOUS.
