Location

Adjacent to a go cart track behind some houses in Millersburg. Looks like an ez hash.


Participants


Plans

Check Craigslist for any cheapo computer gear, as I'm trying to snag a bunch for a robohome project.

Detour along route as needed to purchase.

Drive to hash point.

Since this gets me most of the way to Salem, drive into Salem and pick up some stuff at Harbor Freight.

It's not 'take the northwest Col to camp IV, start the summit push at midnight' but it should be a pleasant hash.


Expedition

Headed west towards Lebanon.

Ran into a fierce rain squall. Decided it was going to be a washout.

Turned around. Stopped at RC hobby shop and bought some servos to keep the vibe of it all going.

When I came out it had stopped raining, but looked scary to the west. I gave up and came home. The hash point is about 150 yards from road, reachable behind houses, so I bet it's a morass of mud.

  • MNB?

no, consolation requires "a set of coordinates, that is particularly hard to reach" I can't call a flat field 'hard to reach'. What stopped me was lack of desire to reach it when it felt like being in a carwash out there.
