Location

By the roadside, about 10 minutes from Kents Bank station.

Participants

Angel, trying to finally get one in his home graticule

Plans

Walk to Arnside (13miles), get the train to Kents Bank, and see if I can make the hash. Get a train all or part way home, depending what time I arrive.

Expedition

Pretty much as planned. The only problem was that every time I took a photo, my GPS coordinates jumped some distance away; so the photos don't show the right location.

Photos

Best pic of me at the location I could get; but every time I hit "upload", my coords go wrong @54.1749,-2.9501
