This was an unexpectedly easy geohash. We drove south for 20 minutes to a residential neighborhood in Crystal Lawns, parked the car by the side of the road and walked 10 feet to our target. I'm not sure why, but there was a small field of soybeans next to the target.

Expedition

This was an unexpectedly easy geohash. We drove south for 20 minutes to a residential neighborhood in Crystal Lawns, parked the car by the side of the road and walked 10 feet to our target. I'm not sure why, but there was a small field of soybeans next to the target.
