Expedition
After work we borrowed Benture's truck and headed out to the hashpoint. It was mostly a smooth drive. The first two unpaved forest roads we took were well-maintained, with only the third being a bit sketchy; we had to stop to remove some branches blocking the way. We parked about a kilometer out from the hashpoint, and walked along the road about half of the way, at which point we had to bushwhack through the forest. It was pretty rough going at the start, but cleared up pretty quickly. After around 300 meters of making our own way we came across another road that Google Maps didn't know about. Another 200 meters and we were at the hashpoint. A spider lived there!
We went back mostly via the secret road, which brought us pretty close to the parked truck. On our drive out, we saw another truck headed up the way we came. A ninja geohasher, perhaps?
