Expedition

This was my first geohash, and it turned out to be a pretty good one. After packing the essentials I hopped in the Sciencemobile (my dad's Prius) and drove about 60 miles from Boston to Pascoag. The place was kind of hard to find, it ended up being an unmarked dirt path off of a 3 mile long back country road. The trek to the hash was fairly long and uneventful, the only person I ran into was a guy out for a drive with his dog in the parking lot. After reaching the end of the trail I trekked through the underbrush for about 20 minutes I managed to find the hashpoint. After dropping a marker and taking some pictures I went back to the Sciencemobile and headed over to a local Wendy's for a delicious Baconator (hells yeah). All in all it was a good day.

  There were a lot of scenic views while hiking along here, too bad the weather didn't hold up.

  Some of the underbrush I had to wade through.

  Finally reached the hashpoint.

  I wonder how long before a wild animal runs off with my marker.

  I took some screenshots of my phone as proof...forgot to get the date in there though.
