Remove this section if you don't want an image at the top (left) of your report. You should remove the "Image:" or "File:"
 
tag from your image file name, and replace the all upper-case word IMAGE in the above line.
 
 
 
And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

Plans

I finally saw a hashpoint with a really good chance of being publicly-accessible, and decided to head out after work.

Expedition

I reached the hashpoint well after dark, it was located a few hundred feet down a dirt road. The point appeared to be right on the edge of the road, a couple feet into the grass. I got out of my vehicle and wandered around a bit to try to pinpoint the exact location, but didn't get a very low HDOP.
