Expedition

Thomcat headed to Eastern Washington to visit with friends and draft fantasy football teams, so why not squeeze in a geohash on the way? Yakima must fall!

It was quite a bit of work to goose the Focus up these dirt roads off the trail - work that proved in vain. Beyond the point I stopped, the road was blocked by a fence and it was a further 6.66 km. Oh, and the sign (past the rust and bullet holes) read No Trespassing... Yakama Indian Reservation.

Too far to walk in the heat, too late in the day... too bad.
