Plans

Walk up the Mosquito Creek trail, then walk back down it. If nobody joins me I might run it instead. It looks to be about an hour's walk to the hashpoint from the Seabus Terminal.

Expedition

The simplest execution of a geohash... I programmed the coordinates into my running GPS, then Sophie and I went for a run up Mosquito Creek. Between the navigation arrow and my memory of what the map looked like, I ran directly to the point then chalked the pavement and took a couple of pictures, after which I ran back to the park and a little further upstream before turning around and running home.
