Location

Next to a golf course right off the freeway. ooOOoo

Participants

  • Ecnelis
  • Karina - doesn't have her profile yet... slacker

Plans

Should be arriving sometime in the late afternoon. It's in the middle of the desert... In Arizona... At the start of summer... HOT!

Expedition

Well, that was an adventure. The street was blocked off, so we had to park on the side of the road, jump the road block, and then traverse through the desert.

We stumbled upon some wild(ish) horses. As you can see from the picture, we stopped short of our destination. The reason for this was we didn't want to startle the horses, and the final location was pretty much exactly where the horses were hanging out.

So, all in all, we got to hangout with a few wild horses... Awesome!

A great first GeoHashing if you ask me!
