Location

A little road near Ring O'Bells

Participants

Angel and his mum.

Plans

Checked the hash, and found it's relatively close to the route we'd be driving when my mum comes to pick me up, as I'm going to stay with her for Christmas. On the way down, I asked if there's time to detour for a hash.

Expedition

It was only a little way off our route. Mum dropped me off, and went looking for somewhere with enough space to turn the car around on the narrow lane. It didn't take long to get as close as I was going to get. The lowest distance recorded by my phone was 71 feet, as the hash itself was on the other side of a fence. Not quite close enough (I think?), but I took a panoramic photo from as close as I could get.

Photos

A little detour on the way to a family christmas week. @53.5913,-2.7404
View from the hash (73 feet) @53.5868,-2.8315
