Location

A few yards away from a daycare center in John's Creek, in a bit of woods.

Participants

Million zillion

Plans

This hashpoint was only about 1.5 miles from my sister's house where I was visiting for the weekend. It was also along the way to the train station via which I planned to go to Dragon*Con 2017 downtown that day.

Expedition

My dad had already offered to drop me off at the the train station, and he agreed to this very short side-trip along the way. He stayed in the car in a nearby parking lot while I walked over to the hashpoint. The daycare center was closed, and I wanted to get to the hashpoint without intruding directly on their grounds.

I found that the easiest way to get to the hashpoint in the trees was to lift up a branch that was leaning against the bushes and step under it. Then I picked my way further into the trees and found the hashpoint.
