Participants

Expedition

This may win the prize for Most Anticlimactic Expedition in the 5000s' experience. We saw what looked to be an easily accessible woodsy hashpoint on the Coast, which inspired us and our visiting guest geohasher to launch an 80 mile attempt. We provisioned ourselves appropriately, then drove and drove and drove and drove and drove and reached the turnoff from Highway 101, where we promptly ran into no-nonsense gates declaring that the area was an active quarry site. They didn't specifically ban geohashing, but you could tell that this was their general mindset.

So we went to the beach.

ALSO: There may be an amazing coincidence to report about this expedition. Inquiries are being made.

Expedition Thwarted.
