Location

Just outside of Carson city. No fence apparent in Street View.

Participants

Plans

We thought we'd just drive out there and see whether or not we could reach it. After being foiled before on a geohash by a random fence, we didn't want to be too sure that we could make it.

Expedition

It went well! After arriving, we drove on some very bumpy dirt roads and eventually (after some GPS annoyances) found the spot. It was next to a tree that was on the border of a dirt road.

Photos

Pictures forthcoming. Trying to work through backlog. --Zebburkeconte (talk)
