Location

Today's hash landed in a farmer's field north of Whitby, ON north of Highway 7.

Expedition

Splitdipless

Not exactly on the way to where I was going, and being in a farm field usually means running into a fence, but I had to get back on the geohashing horse, so to speak.

Setting out from work in 'Em,' I stopped on the shoulder reasonably close to the point. Walking along the shoulder, not only was I confronted by a rather dangerous looking fence, but also several guard cows. No attempt was made to ask the owner to enter the field due to the vicious bovine threat, and schedule commitments.
