Location

Hazeldale Park in Aloha, OR.

Participants

Frogman (talk) and Alison

Plans

Excited from getting his driver's license, my friend Dmitriy asked me if I wanted to go geohashing after I got off of work. Unfortunately, he had to cancel our plans, but that didn't stop Alison and I from going.

Expedition

The hashpoint was in a very nice park west of Beaverton, near some athletic fields. After reaching the hashpoint, we decided to use the playground equipment! Slides are not as fun as I had remembered, but Alison enjoyed herself.

The hardest part of the trip was rush-hour traffic on a Friday on our way back. Even at 3 the traffic on state highway 8 was horribly congested. After we got onto I-405 it was fun because I enjoy looking at interchanges.
