Participants

Plans

  • EvilUncleNomo and The Wife are planning on attempting this geohash after work today. After the thunderstorm last night, we could be walking into another swamp. If my 4 p.m. meeting runs late, we could arrive at the target after dark. Best we bring boots and flashlight, I think.

Expedition

This seemed like a good idea this morning when it was bright and sunny out, but now it's dark and gloomy and threatening to rain. After a short discussion, The Wife and I have decide to try again for the Leap geohash achievement in 2016.
