Location

In a new housing development in Rivière-Beaudette.

Participants

Plans

I'm driving from Québec City to my parent's house tonight. It will be nearly 30 minutes out of the way to get this one. It's pretty good for a potential unlock achievement.

Expedition

I left Quebec City at 18h. I took Highway Jean-Lesage on the south shore.

Stop for some food halfway.

I arrived at 22h in the housing development. I lot more developed than I remember. And a lot more than the satellite image showed. I was expecting the lot to be maybe clear of the trees, but a big house was there. It looked done for a time and I could see the TV lights inside.

The point was in the ward house on the other side of a small newly planted hedge. I screenshotted as quickly as possible the green flag and left with a little run. A bit scared to be seen.

Fun fact; my aunt who hosted the annual smoke meat party for which I made the trip lives in this housing development within 900m. So I'll be back close on Saturday.

This expedition was the first recorded in this graticule 🥳
