Plans

Since it was fairly nearby, I figured I'd swing by after the Farmer's market.


Expedition

I arrived at the house adjacent to the hashpoint as someone was leaving. I explained what I was doing and they protested that they had given noone any permission to put anything on the place. I tried to explain that it was random, but I don't think they got it. However, since I only wanted a photo, they said I could go look at it, but when we looked into the backyard, they said that it must be in the wetlands beyond their fence.

I asked if I could go up to the fence, because that 300 feet that the GPS said might magically shrink down to 60 or 70 when I hit the spacefold.

It didn't, so I took a photo of brambles over the fence. They said I'd have to talk to the "government" about wetlands.

I went around to try to get to the hashpoint from the other side, but only found a very steep slope. So I gave up and went home.
