Plans
The geohash is probably my most ambitious one to date. The East Coast Trail is a moderate hiking trail in some places at the best of times, but will now be snow covered. Snowshoes will be required to reach this geohash. Because of this, and the fact that it will be a 3+km round trip, I probably won't take the family; this will likely be a solo trip.
Expedition
Here is the planned route:
Given the ongoing lockdown in our area due to the COVID-19 pandemic, my mother-in-law was feeling lonely and bored and decided to come along for the trip. After a two hour hike, we finally made it to the spot, which just happened to be atop of an embankment. Wasn't sure if we would be able to make it, but we persevered. Here are some photos from along the way and at the top.
