Revision as of 23:30, 7 January 2015

Location

Just off Hangman Valley Road, north of previous day's location

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Visit geohash at sunrise (7:37 am) and get out of town.

Expedition

An easy drive down the hill led me to Hangman Valley Road, and a short ways up the road to the geohash. I snapped a photo of Hangman Creek on the way. This field was not fenced, lightly dusted in snow, and had a convenient wide spot to park in southeast of the hashpoint.

Took a few photos and then a panorama, uploading the last at 7:37, the sunrise time according to google. Sunrise geohash is an option for weekends, Europe & Asia -- pretty much everywhere except the east and central zones. Sorry guys.

Following that, I headed for Seattle in deep fog. I wasn't in a deep fog, the roadway was. Well, that means I was too - at least until I drove out of it. For grins I snapped a few photos along the way, covering sunset plus one hour, plus two hours, etc. Those photos are below.
