Participants

  • RFid Driver, Navigator and Photographer.

Plans

Plan?

No plan for this hash. Just jump in the car and off I go.

Oops. Upon leaving the command bunker, it turns out that mother nature was trying to put me off with copious precipitation. Went back into the bunker and procured wet weather equipment.

Expedition

Tracklog

No official GPS tracklog, but the route I took was rather convoluted.

Due to the rain, I decided to take the back roads from Merritt Island up to Titusville. 528 (Beachline) west to N. Courtenay Parkway. North on Courtenay through the North Merritt Island Nature Preserve to 405. West on 405 to South Street where the hash is located.

The route back was more direct since there was no rain. South Street and 405 to I95, then south on 95 to 528 East and back to Merritt Island.
