The Meetup
Today's hash was on Edwards AFB, Northeast of Lancaster, CA. It was near Rosamond Lake, the only prominent geographic feature in the Antelope Valley that falls within the graticule.
I, Art, couldn't pass up the opportunity to check out the lake, and determine whether it even had water in it (Google Maps is unclear on this). However, the US military had other plans.
- Photo Gallery
This didn't bode well
Neither did this
And this is where my journey ended, approximately two miles south of the hash coordinates
Planning
This is near Edwards Air Force Base near Lancaster, apparently in a dry lakebed. It is not clear if the exact location is on the restricted part of the base. However, the location is bounded by publicly accessible roads (Rosamond Blvd. to the north and Lancaster Blvd to the East).
We might want to consider meeting in the 33 -118 graticule, Long Beach, California. The hash this week is actually on land.
