Harlequin was working and I was forced to arrange the afternoon to meet the Seattle-Bremerton ferry schedule. Met the 12:45 ferry with minutes to spare and made it to the general area of hash location about 2:30. About 50 yards of bush-whacking across a vibrant berry infestation allowed me to get to the banks of the small stream just shortly before 3pm. Tree cover made GPS performance spotty and I was forced to approximate between readings and my memory of the map/satelite photo to declare the objective met. Then, being a slave to the ferry schedule, I couldn't wait to see if anybody else made it. I left a small note on the spot where I departed the road and beat feet back to Bremerton to catch the 4:20 home.
