A residential street in Saxmundham, Suffolk, UK.

Participants

Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer @52.2166,1.4882 17:08, 17 January 2013 (GMT)

Winter geohashes are more difficult but this was a fairly easy one to achieve.

Although the weather was foul and it was snowing, the expedition looked possible. At first the roads were clear but they became more snowy and slippery during the evening with dropping temperatures. The hashpoint was right in the road so it was possible to generate the evidence without leaving the warmth of the car. The car's thermometer stated 0.0 °C so this was an undeserved frozen hash with a twinge of guilt as there was no battling through sub zero difficult terrain. It's nice to get a successful January expedition especially after failing on new year's day in the warmth and sunshine of Tenerife.
