Location

On the shoulder of Ellendale Road, just west of Dallas.

Participants

Michael5000

Expedition

I drove up from 2022-02-27 43 -123, catching Hwy 99W at little Monroe and continuing through Corvallis and Monmouth before heading west to Dallas. Navigating by GPS and not realizing that the Dallas street grid is largely bisected by Rickreall Creek, I managed to get lost in a much smaller town than one would usually expect to get lost in. So that was fun.

The hashpoint itself was basically a mailbox in front of somebody's house. They may have wondered why someone parked down the street, walked by their house, walked back to his car, and drove away, but if they did I bet the question didn't puzzle them very long.

Photos

The intersection a short distance from the hashpoint.
The hashpoint was right in front of this house -- just slightly to the left of the photo, actually.

Achievements

Michael5000 earned the Multihash Achievement

by reaching 2 hash points on 2022-02-27. It's a Double Hash.

Eight February 2022 expeditions with seven successful shattered my previous February record, 3/3.
