Location

In a field just south of Main St in Newport Center, Vermont.

Participants

Plans

We were only a few miles away, heading towards an eclipse viewing spot, when the stock market opened and we checked the location of the hashes. Hashes. We thought we'd just drive over and walk through the field.

Expedition

Well, I don't know why I didn't think of this, but it was a lot snowier than the satellite pictures showed. I also wish I had walked around the little stream that was forming instead of through. But it was a nice little hike as a break on eclipse day.
