It's a dirt road, but I'd found a website earlier in the day that had promised that it was "suitable for passenger cars for its entire length," and that certainly proved true for its westmost five miles. I only saw two other vehicles using it, both of which passed me at the hashpoint with the drivers giving me puzzled glances: what a random, remote, not-particularly-scenic place to stop. Well, that's geohashing for you. | It's a dirt road, but I'd found a website earlier in the day that had promised that it was "suitable for passenger cars for its entire length," and that certainly proved true for its westmost five miles.

Location
Off Apache Pass Road, south of Bowie.
Participants
Expedition
After flying to Phoenix last Sunday and nabbing that day's local hashpoint, I spent a week doing software training things. When my class ended today, I headed south to Tucson, then continued east on I-10 as far as the small desert town of Willcox. From there, State Road 186 headed south across the flats and then into some hills, through a tiny village with the delightful name of Dos Cabezas, and on to where I turned left onto Apache Pass Road.
It's a dirt road, but I'd found a website earlier in the day that had promised that it was "suitable for passenger cars for its entire length," and that certainly proved true for its westmost five miles. I only saw two other vehicles using it, both of which passed me at the hashpoint with the drivers giving me puzzled glances: what a random, remote, not-particularly-scenic place to stop. Well, that's geohashing for you.
