Expedition

Drove across the state to come home and stopped here. Where in the greenspace? Good question. I found a trail leading back into the area, but the geohash point was off trail of course. Judging by the satellite map, it wasn't far behind these fences, but I could not for the life of me get a good reading on the GPS.

I measured several points (photos below) and wandered all over the area. I am hoping that connecting the GPS dots will reveal that I was within error distance of the geohash at some point of my wanderings. I've already selected my "not reached" category as technology - I either need a better GPS or a very long antenna I can jack up above the trees.
