After checking the coordinate calculator, I realized that the hashpoint was close enough to easily bike to.
Expedition
I am back home for the holidays, and decided to fire up the coordinate calculator. Luckily, the hashpoint was an easy bike ride away!
I was able to follow Foxworthy Avenue until it turned into Pearl, then I turned onto Hillsdale, which itself turns into Snell.
On Hillsdale, I passed by a few quarries that appear to still be in operation.
On Snell, I passed by the Martial Cottle Park, which consists of trails and farms (I'm not sure where exactly the produce is sold).
I turned right onto Blossom Hill, and the hashpoint was in front of a house that was between a strip mall and the entrance for highway 85.
Going back, I took the scenic route and found a lot of interesting places. After passing through a few suburban tracts, I continued on the Cottle Park Trail, which generally parallels Chynoweth Ave. I also found a few other trails (87 Bikeway and Guadalupe River) that I intend to explore soon. This is why I love geohashing!
