Expedition

Ojones The geohash looked to be easily accessible according to online maps. Drove out to the hashpoint and parked at the sports complex. I arrived at about 5pm. It was a short walk from the parking lot to the hashpoint. I took a few pictures and returned home.

Eldin The geohash looked to be accessible, and I was out in the area anyway. So I decided to try for it. The hashpoint was easy to reach, along some trails just outside the sports park. I reached it at just after 1pm, took some pictures, then headed back.

At the hashpoint. Pics and writeup to follow. -- Eldin (talk) @43.7137,-116.3137 13:12, 25 January 2014 (MST)
