Location

Tucker County Park, S. of the town of Hood River.

Participants

Plans

Going by myself. I plan to be there 1200 or 1300 & stay a little while.

Expedition

I had a nice drive, and it WAS sunny in Hood River. But Gooogle lied, the hash was in or just across the Hood River. My GPS calculated it as 30 m. away from me. It was private property on the other side, and the river was too fast, high and cold to wade today. So a near miss, defeated again by the Northwest's wonderful, plentiful water. But I checked out a nice county park and bought some atlatal darts at Good Karma.

Tracklog

I have the log, now to figure out how to link to it.

Photos

Achievements



Today's hash is in a county park, next to Hood River, in the town of Hood River, just South of the Columbia River, about an hour and 1/2 East of the Willamette River. Anybody want to meet me there ?
