Location

Near a girl's softball complex. About a 5-minute walk from the parking lot and then a 1-minute walk into some light brush on the side of the road.

Participants

Plans

Luke and Gabe decided that, without much else to do, they should make the ~45 minute journey by car to reach the day's hash point. They loaded their canine friend, Emily, into the car and set off.

Expedition

Unfortunately, Luke and Gabe were fooled by the presence of the sun into believing the day, and thus the expedition, to be one of a comfortable temperature. This was not the case, and in fact, the expedition was only a few degrees (F) from qualifying for the "Frozen Geohash" achievement.

After parking the car near the hash, the two exited the car and began to make their way, accompanied by Emily (the aforementioned dog), toward the hash. Gabe promptly slipped on an icy bit of ground and fell. After collecting his dignity, the trio pressed onward. The hash was located without much difficulty, approximately 39 meters off of the road, in a field of light brush and small trees.
