Plan

Bishop_Wash: I had to travel to LA with my wife today and I successfully accomplished the geohash for my local graticule before catching the plane. This geohash looked accessible on Google Maps and would be close to our hotel. A fine opportunity for a multihash achievement. With the plane arriving late in the afternoon the plan would be to drive straight to the geohash.

Expedition

Traffic on the 405 and 110 was slow, but fortunately not terrible. Portions even had light traffic. We found the exit and took it, putting the geohash almost due north from us. I found a side street to turn on and quickly came upon a fence blocking the street. We were half a mile from the hash location and it was in a gated community. We turned the car around and swung by the front gate to get a picture of it to document our failure. No multihash today.

It was off to the hotel to check in. Then we walked to the Cheesecake Factory to enjoy dinner.
