Location

On the playing fields of Chiawana High School, in Pasco.

Participants

Expedition

Our lovely drive east from 2022-07-06 47 -122 and 2022-07-06 47 -121 continued down the lee side of the Cascade Mountains, with the thick forests gradually starting to thin out until, shortly before Ellensburg, the trees end with shocking suddenness, replaced by the open scrub and agricultural land that makes up most of central and eastern Washington. We turned south onto Interstate 82 and climbed up over the ranges of hills between Ellensburg and the Yakima Valley, made a quick rest stop outside of Yakima, and then continued up again, east and south and over the hills before descending into the Tri Cities area.

The three cities of the Tri Cities area are Richland, Pasco, and Kennewick. The hashpoint was in Pasco. Chiawana High School was in a modest but tidy neighborhood which, like much in the Tri Cities, has the feel of having been built last week. That's not true, though. It turns out that the school opened all the way back in, um, 2009. Anyway, it was peaceful and healthy-looking on a sunny summer evening, so we sat on the hashpoint -- just outside the third base line on a baseball field -- and enjoyed being in the place. I used my phone to arrange lodging back in Richland, where we also ate dinner. We snubbed Kennewick altogether, but not out of spite.
