Expedition

leaving work now... hoping to find the hash on my way to maffra this evening, since it's just off the highway at Nar Nar Goon. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @-37.9021,145.0170 04:10, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

got off the highway at Nar Nar Goon. as i wondered how i would find my way to the hash (its about time i got some street maps on my GPS by the way) i found the train tracks. remembering the hash was near them, i turned into a side road following the tracks. 700m to go now... -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @-38.0818,145.5695 05:06, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

oh dear disaster... the road turned to dirt with 350m to go... then to somewhat mush ground (its been raining) and finally... there was a fence! i had to stop short 100m from the hash... and with it being somewhat dark (so sorry, no photos from my phone) and the gate being closed, i will have to call this one a fail :( -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @-38.0814,145.5636 05:18, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

i could see the hash, it was in an empty paddock less than 100m away, but even though i could easily have snuck over the gate, i shall not do so... trespassing and all.

good to finally get close to a hash again though, its been a while. -- mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] @-38.0814,145.5635 05:23, 19 August 2011 (EDT)
