Location

Right off of Quarry Road in Pittsfield Township, Ohio.

Participants

Plans

I was fore-caddying on the fairway of the tenth hole at the Elyria Country Club when I viewed today's hash point. I was excited that it appeared to be actually near a road, instead of inside a field as so many other hashpoints in this graticule have been over the years. Seeing its location, I decided to make the journey once the round was finished. Gratefully, the round took three hours instead of the usual four+, which was well appreciated.

Expedition

Once I finished the round, and after more investigating, I set off of the journey. After following the directions to the point, I pulled into a nicely made clearing about 370 feet past the point. I then set off on my walk to finally claim this graticule. Upon journeying 200 feet, I realized that I had left my makeshift hashcot model train Night Fox in my car, so I ran back to get it. Having securing Nigh Fox, I then ran back to the hashpoint. After confirming it on various websites for insurance, I realized that I had finally done it. My goal for the past four years had been attained, and I was the first to successfully reach a hashpoint in the graticule. It was amazing.

After securing the point, I jogged back to the car, and had to attempt a couple times to leave the area where I was parked, as there was a ditch. I ended up driving straight through the ditch, then I set off on the journey home.
