Location
sidewalk in a suburban neighborhood south of Grand Rapids, MI, USA
Participants
Expedition
We were headed out to help a friend set up her house for a party, but she didn't seem to be in a panic, and the hashpoint was only about ten minutes south of town and very easily accessible about a mile off the highway. It also offered a two-way option: we could either figure out how to use the GPS in Susanne's fancy new phone, or we could go for the no-batteries because the location was so well-defined it would be easy to find without any electronic help at all. We went for the latter.
The hashpoint was at the west edge of a sidewalk, about ten feet north of a particular road intersection. We were there about 5 pm, but saw no evidence of other geohashers. Off to the party...
Photos
George at the hashpoint, looking north. The fire hydrant shows up in the satmap.
The only other geohasher we encountered. We think she hadn't checked the coordinates carefully since she was about 50 feet out of position.
