Participants
Expedition
This hashpoint was just off a reasonable alternative of my regular Wednesday commute, and so was a bit of a no-brainer. I parked down the block on the way home from work, and walked around the area for a bit, taking a few pictures.
I am claiming this as a successful expedition under what I consider a common-sense rule: if the hashpoint falls on someone's house or yard in a residential neighborhood, then I am "there" if I can see the hashpoint location from a street, sidewalk, or alley. Posterity and the wiki system may decide otherwise.
As I was heading back to the truck, I encountered every urban geohasher's worst nightmare: an aggressive, charging, off-leash dog. Fortunately, it was only about the size of a large burrito.
Photos
The hashpoint is directly behind my head.
The hashpoint is very near that bush.
The hashpoint is behind that fence, beyond the windshield, over the bear's right ear.
Sidewalks, Southwest Portland style!
Achievements
None, really.
