Location

A field off of woodkilton, near kinburn side road.

Participants

AndrewM

Expedition

I headed out for today's geohash, which was about 8k from my house, by bike at about 4pm. It was about -5 degrees Celsius, and there was a fairly strong headwind as I headed out. Eventually I did get to the point on woodkilton closest the the hash, and as the map predicted it was directly behind a house. I went a bit further to the edge of the field and walked along a fence until the point was directly perpendicular to the fence, then finally walked out into the open field and found the geohash.

Photos

I didn't get the screen with the coordinates on it, but I did get this.
My marker.
The view north to the Gatineau hills.
My path walking and trying to folllow the arrow.
Me at the geohash.
