A Canberra Geohash in several easy steps

  1. Llandorin and Deb park at the nearest spot to the hashpoint
    • Geohash point is on the northern slopes of Mt Stromlo
  2. Nemo arrives a minute later
    • He had been investigating the inability to drive to the roads on the other side of the bardwire fences
  3. The three of them trek over a barbwire fence and to a dirt road which is reckoned by dodgy phone GPS as the point.
    • Yay Nokia
  4. Psud arrives with superior GPS-fu, and leads another 50 to a dirt bike path which IS the geohash point.
    • This was more in line with what google maps thought too
  5. Picnic and photos taken
    • Gastronomical discovery of the picnic: Liquorice and salsa.
    • No robo-camera though
  6.  ???
    • But seriously, ???
  7. PROFIT!!!
    • We will try not to spend it all on beer and hookers. Honestly.
