Location

Just off interstate 84, at the Black's Creek exit.

Participants

Eldin
Pojana

Plans

We were heading to C.J. Strike reservoir to go fishing. We planned to stop at the hash point on the way.

Expedition

Coordinates reached. Will post details once home. -- Eldin (talk) @43.4636,-116.0944 13:44, 17 March 2013 (MDT)

This hash was extremely easy to get, being right at an interstate exit, on our way to where we were going fishing today. We got off the interstate at the Black's Creek exit, and pulled off to the side of the road about 25m from the hash. It only took a couple minutes to walk to the hash, snap a few pictures, and be back on our way. All in all, an expedition which was unremarkable except for its convenient location.

Photos

Several photos of the screen with HashDroid app showing that we were within a few feet of the coordinates were taken. This was the only one that was even remotely recognizable as such.
My wife and I, at the hashpoint.
