My first attempt at reaching a geohash. Been watching the local has-points for a whikle now and this one seemed like a good one to get with the kids while doing a little geocaching in the area as well. We drove up Coralitos ranch road and turned off onto the dirt road which headed towards the geohash. For the first 2 miles the road was in good shape, but after we passed a delapidated rnach-house and well structure the road was wet and muddy from a recent T-storm. Not having a vehicle suited for long stretches of mud, we had to end our pursuit while still 1.4 miles away. I wasn't prepared for a 3 mile hike with the little ones today. Still a gorgeous evening to be out and a fun area to explore. The Robledo's to the east contain Paleozoic trackways, and the Rough and Ready Hills to the west have some fun sport climbing.

Expedition

My first attempt at reaching a geohash. Been watching the local hash-points for a while now and this one seemed like a good one to get with the kids while doing a little geocaching in the area as well. We drove up Coralitos ranch road and turned off onto the dirt road which headed towards the geohash. For the first 2 miles the road was in good shape, but after we passed a dilapidated ranch-house and well structure the road was wet and muddy from a recent T-storm. Not having a vehicle suited for long stretches of mud, we had to end our pursuit while still 1.4 miles away. I wasn't prepared for a 3 mile hike with the little ones today. Still a gorgeous evening to be out and a fun area to explore. The Robledo's to the east contain Paleozoic trackways, and the Rough and Ready Hills to the west have some fun sport climbing.
