Planning
- Google Maps link
- I'm planning to get there around 4:00pm, as per usual xkcd meetup time. Looks like there's easy driving access if you go here, then take the little unmarked road to a parking lot within the park. From there, it's a straight walk to the site. (I don't have a gps, so I'm probably going to end up counting the bushes to tell if I'm on the spot.) --Mystitat
Execution
- Mystitat arrived around 4:05. There were lots of dog-walkers and cyclists, but no other geohashers. Took some pictures and hung out until about 4:30.
Photographic Evidence
Warnings were made.
Second thoughts were had.
The proof! (Well, I don't actually own a gps ... )
Better proof! (You can see on the satellite view that the exact spot is under power lines.)
If you squint, this pile of stumps/logs nearby kinda looks like like an octopus...
Signs were left.
Scenery was beautiful.
