If NWoodruff's user activity counter is correct and if my own counting is right, on this day I'll match his expedition count. My success rate is lower so it'll be a while until the coordinates-reached is equalled. With 896 expeditions between us, the scope for a mistake is considerable but I doubt if anyone in the community cares enough to check. I'd like to retro-fit the wiki with a template to make counting easier but with well over 10 000 expeditions to edit, it'll never happen.

Expedition
A tearful Sourcerer set out walking. Note to self: After chopping chillies, wash your hands before rubbing your eyes!
There was a field entrance to park close to the footpath. After about 200 metres there was a dry ditch to cross. Then the field perimeter followed a small stream. Of course the hashpoint was on the wrong side and it was too wide to jump. Although it was close to freezing, the stream was so shallow that it was worth one wet foot to make the leap. A minute later I zeroed the distance. The stream bed was sand and stone so it was clean. Sandals drain like the deck of a ship. By the time I got back to the car, my foot was hardly wet.
