Plans

Since this is the first geohash on land since I started checking, I plan to drive down with my daughter and test out the GPS function on my phone.

Expedition

I was feeding Kristina before hitting the road, and my sister called and decided to drop up for a surprise visit. I convinced her to come with me and we decided to take the dog with us.

We headed out. My phone didn't properly save the coordinates, so after a bit of searching on the back road and using my backup printed map, we found the spot to park.

We were lucky as this geohash was only about 44 meters from the road. I reprogrammed my phone, and we started off into the woods. A few minutes in and we came to a clearing with a log structure, and lots of animals bit lying around. Looks like is was used for skinning and chopping up rabbits.

Checked the GPS and realized we walked too far in, and to the left. Another minute of so and we were at another structure. No idea what this one was for...really should have taken pictures. Another GPS check, another few meters and we were there. :)
