Location

The hash was located in the North East corner of Long Copse, East of Salisbury.

Participants

Jand
(and his parents).

Expedition

Jand

Finishing work at 4:30, my parents and I drove for just under half an hour, until we reached the gates of an estate with No Entry signs. Undeterred, we took the other fork in the road and ended up at the start of a farm track about 1.2km from the hash. Here, I got out and walked solo, reaching Long Copse by walking through ankle deep mud and ~~thorn bushes~~ raptor nests. Emerging miraculously unharmed, I reached the hash at 5:24 pm.

Seeing plastic on the ground, I decided to try for my Geotrash Geohash achievement, (see below).

On the walk back to the car, I got some great pictures of the sunset.

Photos
