Location

Just up the road from Woburn Station in Lower Hutt.

Participants

Plans

All came about while Hugh introduced Jackson to hashing the night before, then the next day Jackson noticed that it was actually on land. Decided to head out for the party at 4pm, and organised a few people to join for a picnic.

Expedition

Hugh and Adelle drove out, while Jackson drove with the muggles. Had a picnic on the side of the road just next to the train tracks. GPS said ~3 meters from the spot, which we thought was legit, but technically we couldn't reach it exactly.

Hugh and Adelle drove past it at the legal speed of 50, but would have been ~4-5 meters away, so may not get the Speed racer achievement?

Afterwards, we went geocaching just up the road (~100 meters), to get the Hash collision achievement achievement.

Tracklog

None tacken.
