Expeditions
This was my first attempted geohash and it was successful. My brother and I decided to go for it the night before, and so we set out around 8:00 in the morning. Getting to the location involved exploring the north westside, near Pritchard Road. The final leg was driving about three quarters of a mile down an ostensibly-private dirt road, followed by a few hundred feet on foot. Thankfully there was a trail. The location itself was a few yards away from some railroad tracks, and we used them in conjunction with a treeline and Google maps to find the spot as best we could. We took some pictures, picked up some trash and a Geotrash ribbon, wrote "xkcd" in the dirt, and left. [[Category:Coordinates reached]
