Location

At the edge of a baseball field on the grounds of Franklin Sherman Elementary School in McLean, VA.

Participants

Expedition

I was on my way back from a camping trip in Maryland, and the hashpoint for the day was right off my route. It was a pretty easy "expedition" - I parked at the parking lot for the nearby Franklin Sherman Elementary School, walked across the fortunately deserted outfield of the baseball diamond, and found the hashpoint almost on the edge of the field. I reached about 9 meters away; the actual point was a little ways further up a rise within some very dense brush. Not wanting to face the long hard scramble through brush and thorns to reach the actual point, I called it good at 9 meters, and went back to my car. From there, I drove back home.
