Location

Northbound 37th Ave near the county line in Lake Forest Park, North Seattle

Participants

Expedition # 1: Thom

Geohash on the way to work; didn't even have to drive too far off my usual route. Had to drive past twice due to tree cover (the vehicular GPS dance), but got geohash droid to report "on the spot". Will come back with Sidewalk Chalk on the way home.

On the spot - 7:06 am -- Thomcat @47.7764,-122.2904 07:06, 4 September 2012 (PDT)

Update - chalked the spot on the way home and searched for the Geocache, which was not visible from the hashpoint (although the starting location for the search is).

Plans for expedition # 2

I will also try to get this one sometime this afternoon or evening, now that I know I'm not making like a tree to try and get 2012-09-05 global. Does anyone want to join me there? I'll say 6:30pm at the hash, but that time is very flexible to suggestions... -- OtherJack 18:34, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

Easier for me to stop on the way home, probably 4:45-5:00. Got some web work to do tonight. I'll chalk if you're not available. --Thomcat 19:11, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

No way I'm going to get there that fast by bike at this point, so I won't plan on meeting you. I'll still say 6:30 for now... -- OtherJack 19:20, 4 September 2012 (EDT)

Exploring the possibilities of a Hash/Cache collision (336 ft N - but is it really?)
