Location

The hash is in a dirt area off the road near Magic Mountain and the new Valencia development. Google's Street View from 6 months ago shows some piles of dirt and a freestanding gate we can walk past. Behind the hash is a ditch with a dry culvert that we could also walk down. (Apple's satellite imagery is quite old, showing actual construction that no longer appears to be there.)

Participants

Jeremy and Ethan

Plans

This morning, I (Jeremy) got a notification from my geohash-calculating shortcut that the geohash was accessible. We (me and Ethan) have been waiting for months for our first hash, so this is really exciting. Today happens to be a really good day, our schedules are clear and the weather is great. There are four geocaches nearby and the Iron Horse trailhead is close, so we will try to take our bikes down to the trailhead and bike around.

Expedition

We loaded up our bikes and drove down to the Iron Horse trailhead. We headed out for the

Tracklog

I never paused the tracking, so you get to see us wandering around at the geohash and geocaches.
