Location

Located East of Loop 340 in Waco, TX.

 GPS: (31.501784N, 97.114371W)

Weather was hot (95°F) and sunny.

The Meetup

User GreyGndalf and myself hiked out 100 yards into the middle of a corn field on the outskirts of Waco, TX. Walking against the grain of a corn field is not as easy as one might think! We looked around for quite some time for other geohashers in the corn field with no luck. They must have been hiding.
