Location

Off of Highway 52, southeast of Dubuque, Iowa.

Participants

Plans

I flew into Chicago at 5 a.m. Friday, and don't need to be anywhere until Sunday afternoon. I got my rental car and headed west; once the hashpoints were out I stopped at a coffeeshop in Winnebago and looked for a likely expedition.

Expedition

The hashpoint was on a gravel road in rolling hills a mile or two from the little village of St. Donatus. If you were at liberty to drive a hundred miles to get to it, it presented no other particular challenges on site. The area where Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin meet is hilly and charming, and Dubuque looked pretty quaint on a bright fall day. It was a nice little drive.

Was I really there? Yes, I was really there.

This way to the hashpoint.
