Northwest of Reading, between Reading Regional Airport and the Schuylkill River.

Participants

Candida Nashe

Expedition

Got a little lost on the way to the hashpoint, but eventually found my way to a turnoff within a few hundred feet of the point. The area was unfortunately fenced in, and there was a large "posted" sign warning people away.

While I was considering just how law-abiding a citizen I am, an airport security vehicle pulled up behind me and a nice security guy asked if he could help me. I told him I had been planning on doing a little photography, but had noticed the no trespassing sign and would now be on my way!
