Location

Inside a fence in a North Portland Industrial Area

Participants

Jim

Plans

I was going to go on the original day, but had too much stuff to do at home, so the trip got put aside.

Expedition

However, I put it on a list to eventually visit, and today's Geohashing expeditions provided the day.

I was hopeful that a mismatch (in my favor!) between the real world and Google Maps would put the hashpoint in range, but that wasn't to happen.

I managed to make it to the industrial area where the hashpoint was, but it was 39 feet to the hashpoint, even when I held the GPS over the fence. Maybe if I manage to come by during the day when the businesses are open and I can wander (err, get lost) getting to their office.

Photos

It was dark, but I tried: photo still in camera
