Report

I had to be in Paramatta Thursday evening so I decided I'd try and get the Blue Mountains Geohash while I was in the area.

Once I got off the motorway I drove around in circles for a while trying to follow my GPS before getting out the street directory- then I easily found the the Hash point - down a long dark country road.

Serial Killer Territory.

Although only 113 meters off the road, I decided not to climb the fence. I thought getting hacked up by an axeman, at night, in the middle of nowhere kind of defeated the purpose.
