Participants
Expedition
- I've never done a virgin graticule before. It's not like there are any videos on the internet showing people doing virgin graticules so I was kind of nervous as this is my first time.
- When I was there I wanted to do all sorts of fun things with my virgin graticule but then I saw a couple of ATV's in the distance and I got scared so I left. The southern desert is actually known for crime.
- I hope the graticule will want me to geohash by there again.
- In all seriousness I hitched and bussed to Tlalim and then walked down the highway until I saw Naot Farm. I walked around it and started going up and down the valleys.
- Eventually I figured out that the terrain map from Google was useless because I could barely see it in the bright sun so I switched to the satellite image and I figured out that anything that had green was a valley so I walked up as high as I could and just followed the ridges until I was sure that all I would need to do was walk down the hill to get down.
- On the way back I saw the "relief arroyo" below. It was the most green that I had seen for several hours and so I felt quite happy after seeing so much brown. I have heard that that is why Islam uses the color green because it was a religion started in the desert.
- The trip back was uneventful but I did get to meet the people at the farm and it seemed like they were hosting a wedding.
