Plans

This geohash is very close to the previous day's location, only about 2 miles away. It still isn't that close to my house, but close enough where the trip is feasible. The difference between this location and the day before's is that this one doesn't appear to require trespassing, obviously a huge plus. When I initially looked on Google Maps, I was disappointed because it appeared that this location was on the edge of someone's yard, but OpenStreetMap and an online map of the Pawling Nature Preserve both show that the geohash is within the boundary of the nature preserve, although slightly off the path.

It appears I'll be able to park at the Dutchess Exotics Pet Supply, which sounds like a pretty interesting place. Once I get there, I'll need to find the entrance to the Orange Path right on the other side of the street, although that path doesn't show up on Google Maps. I'm a little nervous about entering the preserve, straying off the Green Path, finding the geohash, and making my way back to the path all in the dark, but it's a very small distance I'll have to travel and I'll have my compass on my phone. Very excited to finally get my first successful geohash.
