About

Stockbridge, GA, Henry County. This location is typical of Atlanta suburbs in 2009: an empty lot in a half-built subdivision.

Expedition

LuxMundi

Hopped over to Henry County on my way to work. Got to within my iPhone's margin of error. Did NOT leap into the large briar thicket, so I may have stopped a few feet short, but close enough???

I was hoping for the Tron Achievement, but the only way to park at my work was in a 1-way alley, so that is shot.

I made my way to Stockbridge and found the subdivision. I drove through the subdivision looking for the closest road access to the hash point. I stopped at what was an empty lot. I hopped out in search of the Geohash spot. I got to 18 feet to the hash point and found a retention pond for the subdivision. There was a 20 foot drop off into the pond that appeared to still be full of water.

I settled on 18 feet to go and took some pictures of the exact area so LuxMundi would know exactly where the hash point was.

I then got back into my truck and made my way back to Norcross.

There is a 20 foot drop into this retention pond. There is no way to tell if it is still full of water with all the rain that we have had lately.
