Drift 2 Strategy and Start Point

I will be using the dice strategy of throwing a single die anytime I reach the corner of a street. After using it for my Drift 1 I felt it was one of the best ways to generate a randomized path that would be hard to repeat through chance. However, the previous time I used this method there were a couple things that did not go as planned. On multiple occasions I found myself following the same block in a complete circle or re-tracing my path backwards for multiple throws. Though this let me have a second listen to areas, the entire area I covered was rather small. For this version of the dice throwing I plan to simplify the outcomes:
  • 1-2: left
  • 3-4: right
  • 5-6: straight
I also plan to start at the Fonzie statue on E Wells Street in downtown Milwaukee again. Because the first direction in Drift 1 from that point was left, I will force the first direction to be right. Hopefully this will allow an entirely new path to be discovered.

Treasure Map?

This is a rough example of the path I took, as well as some stopping points, for my Drift 2 walk.

Key:
  • Green / Red marker = Start / End Point
  • Blue marker = Sound Spot
  • Yellow marker = Video Spot
