Location

Farm near Cressy.

Participants

Expedition

Left a bit after 10am on Eggster Friday. Drove 50 minutes to just outside of Cressy. Pulled up on the side of the road.

It was a lovely sunny day and not too hot. I lifted my kids over the barbed wire fence and placed them down on some volcanic rocks placed along inside the fence line. We started walking towards the hash which was in another paddock. A flock of sheep took fright at me calling for my kids to hurry up, they stared at us for about 5 minutes then ran away to the furtherest part of the paddock from us.

930 metres in we crossed another fence and the hash was only another 70 metres away. The kids rescued a worm from some ants. I debated which pile of sheep poo was closest to the hashpoint. With successful photo taken we returned the way we came.
