Hillsborough, near Six Mile Run.

• Kyukket

Plans

Jevanyn: My initial recon indicated that there was a freight train line, which would have made it a relatively easy geohash to reach.

Expedition

Kyukket: Here's what I got...

• Those weren't train tracks on the map - they're power lines...
• I wasn't going anywhere near them...

All I have are a few pics from the nearby intersection and a coordinate reading.

(There wasn't even a street sign to get a pic of =( )

  GPS has an accuracy of what?!?

Edit: Kyukket's explanation for the wild GPS range was that his phone was triangulating from cell towers, not acquiring the location from GPS satellites.
