And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

Location

Beside the Lancaster canal, on the path. An easy place to reach.

Participants

Just Angel today.

Plans

Get up early, walk up the canal, then back into town for lunch. Maybe go out again later in case other people arrive at Meetup Time.

Expedition

  • Feeling sick, feeling dizzy. This should have been an easy one, but having only just got out of bed makes it a challenge. -- Angel (talk) @54.0311,-2.7943 10:59, 14 February 2015 (EST)
  • Finally left the house at some time after 3, I think.
  • Reached the hash around sunset. Massive construction works, they're building a bridge over the canal right at the hash point.
  • A good omen at last: the canal path has a wiggly detour, but comes within range of the hash!
  • Tried to go back by road, there's a path across the site, but the gate onto the road was padlocked. So ended up needing to use my phone as a torch to make sure I didn't fall in the canal on the way home.

Angel earned the Walk geohash Achievement
by reaching the (54, -2) geohash on 2015-02-14 on foot.

And, as proved by An Endomondo tracklog (There's a break between the two tracklogs that day because my phone crashed, and I think the hash might be in the gap… I've walked that way plenty of times before, but that's the first tracklog I managed to find)

Dejavu.png
Angel earned the Déjà Vu Geohash Achievement
by reaching the (54, -2) geohash on 2015-02-14, and previously on 2013-02-03.
