Location
In the 'home' paddock of a rural farm at Wallaroo near Hall, a village near Canberra ACT. This is just off the Barton Highway from Canberra (the national capital) to Yass, where it joins the Hume Highway, the main eastern inland route in Australia, between Sydney and Melbourne.

On the drive home from work, go past my home out to the hash and at least get to the farm gate and (1) take a pic from there, and (2) drop a map/message in the mailbox.

I drove west out along the Barton Highway and was past the entrance before I realised it. I turned around and returned, past the historic church on the north side of the road. I parked my car opposite the gated entrance to the property, and walked across between the streams of cars.
The entrance has several historic names, one the name of the property and the other then occupants, a well know name of early European settlers of the region. For reasons of privacy, I will not name them.
I took several pictures at the locked gate and looking up the hill where the hash point is obscured by some trees.
I left an explanation of geohashing that invites them to document the actual hash.

Gate entrance closing off access to the hash that is up the hill close to the road behind the tree.
Sheep in a paddock near the gate. Note the dam that is looking well stocked.
