Location

Today's hash was located on right off the street, in what appears to be either a side or back yard.

Participants

Plans

I checked today's coordinates as I was getting ready to leave work for lunch, and discovered, to my surprise that they were located about 3 miles from my work. So I decided to swing by after I ate, take the mandatory photo, and see how it turned out.

Expedition

Today's was fairly easy. It was in the middle of a residential neighborhood, down one of many side streets. I pulled up at the location after a couple minutes, and found that the coordinates placed the point in someone's yard. I stopped my car and got out, but I decided against trespassing. I got 22 feet from the coordinates, and I have a photo with EXIF to prove it. Also, it turns out that the GeoHash Droid application is really useful if you've got an android device.
