In the West Wood, near Calverly
Participants
myka and possibly Fergus
Plans
the plan was to ride out there, and return via pudsey.
Expedition
- There is a lot of rain. I was going to ride out to the hashpoint today, and come back via pudsley to buy a backpack, but i've decided to look for busses instead. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @53.7998,-1.5444 12:21, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- as it turns out, there is a bus which should allow me to do both things i want to do. joy! --mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 12:56, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- New plan: bus to pudsey to buy a pack, then bus to calverley where i will wander around the west Wood until i find the hash, then bus back home.
I almost left Fergus behind. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 13:42, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Of course, once i've committed myself to busses its hardly raining. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 14:25, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- New pack sorted. Took longer than i expected. Now to find the next bus stop. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @53.8062,-1.6819 15:50, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Someone seems to have hidden this bus stop. Maybe 3km isn't too far to walk...
Yes, i shall do that. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @53.8036,-1.6950 16:21, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- One of the benefits of walking places is that you find interesting views and places. Also a horse.
I have about 3 hours before i need to get really worried about the last bus. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @53.8175,-1.6968 16:52, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Less than 100m. I had to find a legal way into the wood, since mostof the roads going in are marked "no access". I think the way i used is ok... It's got paths and everything.
Gps accuracy and reception on the phone are low thanks to a the combination of trees and clouds. My other gas is out of batteries. Hope i can locate the point. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 17:57, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Ack gps accuracy. My location, according to the phone, is maybe accurate within 500m...
I'm going to have to call this a fail. Booo -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 18:08, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Can see the main road at the end of this lane. Yep. I just saw my bus go past. Dang.
I believe i was actually within a few netters of the hashpoint today, based on the times i did get a steady high accuracy reading, but no proof unfortunately. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 18:23, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
