Location

South Hill, not far off Regal, likely to be private property

Participants

Thomcat

Expedition

Visiting relatives on the South Hill and not far from this geohash, I brought the kids along for an attempt.

The point was definitely on private property and, had I not been encumbered with rugrats, I would have tried for an ambassador. This would have also meant reaching the spot at 4pm for the official meetup, an infrequent thing in this largely inactive graticule. Instead, I snapped a photo of the outbuildings (compare with streetview - I haven't) and uploaded it with geohash droid. Plenty of more interesting points to reach in the next 24 hours :).

Photos

Private property in Spokane. @47.6110,-117.3573
