Expedition
A few days had elapsed since my last expedition so what better than to go midnight hashing. After picking off 2011-08-02_52_1 at 23:32 I headed south.
I parked in a passing place on the single track road leaving the side lights on. At 1a.m. there would be little traffic.
Soon after 1a.m. my droid reported the following.
- Arrived. -- Sourcerer @52.1064,1.2704 01:08, 03 August 2011 (GMT+01:00)
The hashpoint was 17 metres into an oil seed rape field. I squeezed past a few tall wiry plants, soon to be harvested, until I was inside the circle of uncertainty. I didn't bother to get zero on the display. The plants were so thickly intergrown that the damage would have been unacceptable. After all this is geohashing, not crop-circle making!
The drive home on a warm summer night on traffic free roads was very pleasant.
