Location

Sunrise park trail, between Lake Sammammish and I-90.

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Stop by after work, then take the bridge back to Seattle.

Expedition

Easy hash, except for the traffic.

Visited Costco for gas and dogfood, cheese and butter. Nice pleasant trip south along West Sammammish drive, reaching the pullout for the trail spotted from streetview.

An easy hike up the hill, just 0.2 miles from trail head to the I-90 trail. Along the way, GPS error grew and shrank, probably due to trees. On the way back down I stopped at the hash point, and after a brief dance, got within 2m for the post.

Due to recent experience, I posted using the picture coordinates and the phone coordinates - almost no difference today.

Geohash reached, I returned to the car and fought even more traffic on the way home. Too easy not to go, though.
