Plans

Plan was to leave Denver via I-25, Pull off at Happy Canyon Road, then take US 85 to State 67. After that, simply taking Rainbow Creek Road all the way up to it.

Expedition

Everything went as planned, until hitting a locked gate a little over a mile away. Got some neat pictures of nearby Wildcat Mountain, though. Also notable is the fact that 7.5' quad maps are really useless when you scale them down to fit on a piece of letter paper, so I was unable to plot an alternate route to the geohash, and had to head home. I might try and hit another graticule tonight though, the day is still young!
