Geohashing Point not in a Cornfield

Most Midwestern geohashing points fall in corn or soybean fields. Yesterday's point for the Danville, Illinois graticule was different. It fell near an interesting wooded area, and the return trip passed an amazing quarry. See the trip report for the full story.

It surprised us, too. The quarry is the Fairmount Stone Quarry, one of several quarries owned by Material Service Corporation. Here is a satellite image showing the place where Alejandro took the panorama posted above.
