Expedition

I was unable to arrange a meetup today with Pedalpusher but I wanted to try this travel-hash as a solo expedition anyway. It was more or less on the way as I traveled from Ithaca to Rochester through the Finger Lakes region. Often power-line hashes are legal but impenetrable; this one looked penetrable but illegal. There were No Trespassing signs of various levels of stridency and threat from all three approaches I tried. I gave up, and went for lunch in the pleasant little town of Penn Yan at the north end of Keuka Lake.
