Revision as of 17:27, 24 June 2015

Location

At the intersection of Elmore Rd. and Fairview Ave, south of Fruitland, ID.

Participants

Eldin & Borneo

Plans

I expect to leave home to head towards the hash around 8pm, which should put us at the hashpoint around 9.

Expedition

We got started about 40 minutes late, but beyond that, everything went quite smoothly. We parked by the road near the hashpoint at about 9:50pm, spent a few minutes between walking to the hash and trying to get a solid GPS lock, took some pictures, and then headed out to grab some food before returning home.

Photos

Eldin and Borneo at the hashpoint.
The hashpoint is about 3ft towards me from the fencepost with the poster.
Closer shot of the poster left at the site.
The sunset, as viewed at the hashpoint.
Proof that we were in the right place.

Achievements

Eldin & Borneo earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (43, -116) geohash on 2015-06-23.
