Shoot across the Bridge of the Gods. $.75 each way, what a deal.
[edit] Expedition
Made a mistake posting and put this on tomorrows page. Posted it on Sunday, after the fact. I hate doing documentation. Across the river up Herman Creek Rd. Only 100m off the road, but a rough walk. Lots of downed trees in a scree with thick undergrowth coming up. Using the iPad GPS and MotionX-GPS HD app. Its handy and aquires pretty fast, but tends to wander quite a bit when within 10m of waypoint. I setup the hash location as a waypoint before my walk and use it's goto function to navigate in.

Zoomed in you can see the erraticness of the track. It would say to go 5 ft west, I'd move and then it would say 75 ft N.

As I was booting the camera it was saying 9 ft, and then it changed it's mind. Maybe the drizzle?

You can see how close I was to the road, and how thick the brush.
