Expedition

  • Foiled by a fence. Now on the way back to the highway.

We got to within 70m of the hash point but it was guarded by a fence and some large cows. Although the cows ( now roasted in the sun at 37°C) were far away, we decided that we would stay on our side of the fence and the cows on theirs.
