Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.3157,1.2064 10:05, 21 January 2014 (GMT)

The hashpoint was not too far from home and it looked possible to make a triangular trip taking in the hashpoint, a visit to the cemetery where my brother was recently buried and then on to work.

The weather was foggy with a temperature of -1C. There was a convenient place to park at the field entrance. There was a bridge across the little stream and the hashpoint was close to the field edge. The exact position could be reached by following tractor tracks where no seedlings were growing. The land was very wet with an ice crust. The sun was not quite managing to break through.

At the cemetery, everything was OK and I reached work with a couple of minutes to spare. A well planned expedition.
