Location

Parking lot for an industrial building in Pickering.

Plans

Splitdipless

It doesn't appear to be that hard to get to. Being in a parking lot, I should be able to go there after work without too much of a problem, and even have a handy place to park. A gate to the parking lot could not be determined by the satellite image.

Expedition

Splitdipless

I went to the hash after work, and as I was pulling into the parking lot, everyone else was pulling out. It seemed I came in just in time for quitting time. I waited a few minutes while the crowd died down, then got out and walked to the hash and started taking photos. What I found was that employees don't care if they see a geohasher at quitting time, because they just want to get out of there.

Nothing much else to say about the hash other then traffic is bad around 5pm in that neighbourhood. Being nestled between a bay and a river, there is only one road out, Whites road, and that road was busy.

Photos

For the win!
Oh, some-one's work.
Shades work better over eyes, not on top of head.
