Location
Just off Highway 43 in East Troy, WI (Highway Exit Ramp)
Participants
Plans
Looking to head out around 4:30 to get this on the road and maybe go for Speed Racer
Expedition
Planned to go and drive down the exit ramp after picking up a friend in Waukesha for something to do in the afternoon however these plans turned south and the afternoon slipped away when the raptors showed up. Needing inspiration to fight on I went to see "Lone Survivor" and after some inspiring feats of endurance had the spirit to go and defend the geohash if needed. As I approached the exit I surveyed the area at full speed as to not draw any attention I promptly doubled back around and exited my vehicle traipsing through the snow until I had arrived.
Snapped a few photos outside then got back into the vehicle to continue my drive home. Tried out a new GPS mapping app for iPhone and it looks like it worked. Still waiting for the "export" feature to work.
Photos
GPS App failed so resorted to Google Maps and hiding behind a pin.
Snow covered the area off the exit ramp.
On the Exit Ramp close to the geohash.
City of East Troy was below freezing!!!
