Expedition

• I can't miss the chance to do this! Only 430 from home and its close to the road. -- B cereus @53.4769,-113.6484 17:44, 10 November 2011 (EST)

• Only halfway there and I already have a ribbon. Got caught by a speed trap. The officer was quite interested in geohashing and thought I was a fellow "member". I guess I have the cop look even without participating in Movember this year. At least I got a reduced ticket. Yay! No demerits! -- B cereus @53.3159,-110.2613 20:19, 10 November 2011 (EST)

• The second half of the drive was uneventful albeit slower. The last 100 km however, could have been disastrous if I wasn't posting attention to the road. 12 wild horses blocked the road and they didn't budge as I approached whilst honking. In a few minutes they decided it's been taunted long enough and they parted to let me pass. -- B cereus 00:54, 11 November 2011 (EST)

• The hashpoint was up on top of a hill only 100 metres from the road. A nimble ninja roll under a barbed wire fence and 20 minutes of zeroing in on the location with a phone sluggish from the cold I was there! Yay! Fourth successful globalhash ever! -- B cereus 01:01, 11 November 2011 (EST)

  I was a bit too eager to get to the Globalhash... The cop was nice enough to take my picture.
