Location
Just across the Arizona/California border, close to Blythe, off the 10 Freeway.
Participants
JesseW, one drag-along (pictured), and two other passengers (not pictured).
Plans
This was the second of three hashes I attempted on the same day. (Here's the first and third.) It looked pretty close to the freeway...
Expedition
The in-car navigation told us to take Dome Rock Rd. It was very clear what rock it was referring to. We got pretty close (33.645008, -114.325934), but found that to be any closer we would have to drive on a rough dirt road that our Prius was not particularly suitable for. We got some pictures, and went on to the next one.
Photos
The navigation system.
The very obvious dome rock. (And me.)
The dirt road that stymied us.
My colleague, and owner of the car.
Proof of how close we got.
Achievements
when there is a natural obstacle between you and the target
