Location
Today I (NathanielBryceson) went on my first ever Geohashing expedition, went with his 4x great grandson, Saxbophone. It was in the Bristol, United Kingdom graticule.
Participants
Plans
We went a day early to check out the location and whether it was accessible. But we recorded it anyway.
Expedition
We realised the location was in the middle of a field! We wondered if we could access via a nearby Blacksmiths business but it was closed. We then discovered a foot path ran behind the field. It was a glorious walk to the field. We passed horses, sheep and forest. We discovered the pathway passed into the field and we were able to get quite close. A deer leaped out from near the location: what a lovely site. We then took a lovely walk back to the car. We drove to a spot of interest nearby: the source of the River Avon. What a wonderful introduction to the world of Geohashing. It was well worth the time travel from the 1840s.
Tracklog
This will kindly be provided by Saxbophone who had an interesting device called a GPS receiver with him: Such modern fangled technology these days.
