Location
In the Raritan River, line of sight from the walking/biking paths in Duke Island Park.
Participants
- Jevanyn (talk), although I'm supposed to be painting that day.
- User:Signore Galilei (talk)
potentially? I should be available, though it's a bit of a drive from the other side of the graticule.EDIT: It looks like the weather isn't cooperating, so I don't think I will make the drive.
Plans
There is a parking lot nearby, this is within easy reach.
The river itself will likely be high from rain at that time, so an aquahash should not be attempted unless you have a Jet-ski or something (I don't know where one would put into the river, but I think I've seen kayaks at this location in the past.)
- Geohash Droid puts the hash on the south bank of the river rather than in the water, for what it's worth. I presume we'd still park in the lot on the North side? Signore Galilei (talk) 16:23, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

- If your drive all the way down to parking lot D, it's a lot closer to the geohash -- Jevanyn (talk) @40.5499,-74.6720 15:36, 16 July 2023 (EDT)
