Location

The hash was located about a mile down an old dirt road, and a quarter mile into the woods after that.

It was a very redneck Appalachian sorta place, and the entire woods was littered with old structures and metal heaps and refrigerators and trash. The spot itself was marked by an old wooden ladder (in pic below).

Participants

Plans

I had two hours between college classes, and I estimated the hash to be about 53 minutes away (plus a short walk through the woods). I didn't plan ahead at all, I just headed out impulsively. I made it to my next class on time, too, believe it or not!


Expedition

I came home after class, and I got online and checked the coordinates. I asked my brother to find his old GPS, which he grudgingly did. And then I rode off into the blue. It wasn't any more complicated than that! And the spot was wonderfully easy to find. It was a beautiful ride out, and I'm looking forward to being able to do this more often.


And also this is my first geohash

so if I screwed something up please forgive me
