Location

Near a house on Phinney Ridge, just north of the PNA.

Participants

Plans

Visit around lunchtime. Can easily get within 10 meters, but not sure if I can actually reach the spot. Red Mill burgers just up the hill, Spud not far from the bottom of the hill.

Expedition

This is a neighborhood I know well, having lived just blocks away. After visiting the geohash, I snapped pictures of a long children's slide and the air-raid siren. But I started with a snapshot of Green Lake.

Parked nearby on a clear and chilly day. A very bikeable location, but work and customer calls limited my free time today.

The hashpoint was located in front and between the two houses, roughly in the pictured bush. Though the google and zillow overview showed it to be on the northern property, it actually ended up being on the southern. A quick visit to the porch found nobody home and the geohash reached with only a lean into said bush.

Afterward I visited the active daycare center and slide (conveniently utilizing the hillside) and siren. Hashed out, I then headed to lunch. Though Red Mill and Zeke's tempted me, I ended up a Spud. Quite an easy success, followed by a yummy lunch.
