Location

On the eastern banks of the Yass River, on the eastern side of Gundaroo Airport (aka Dick Smith's country home).

Participants

1PE

Plans

1PE had planned to go out for a pre-midnight hash for this site, then do 2013-08-25 -35 149 about 10km along the Murrumbateman road. But, it just does not make sense to drive around 100km in the middle of the night on country roads when there are kangaroos and wombats that might make a mess of the car in the middle of nowhere on "roads less travelled". AND... At neither place could I get nearer than about 1.5km to the hash point. Others are welcome to go. (And, I have met Dick Smith on several occasions and could probably talk myself in IF he was there. But, not at midnight.)
