Location

Near an apartment complex in Bolingbrook

Participants

Plans

I'll stop by while I'm in the area.

Expedition

This looked reachable and I was in the area today so I decided to drive over and take a look. The hash point was apparently located in the entrance drive to an apartment complex so I parked nearby and walked the 100 feet or so over to get it. Geohash Droid zeroed in on a big rock on the corner as the hash point, which I have dubbed Hashrock. Sylvie subbed in for my grin photo once again, and then it was back into the car to go get lunch. Unfortunately, while it had been snowing all morning, the temperature was just high enough for it to mostly all melt before I arrived and so no Frozen Geohash for me.

Photos

Proof

Achievements

Tarasaurus earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (41, -88) geohash on 2023-01-22.
