This looked like an extremely easy hashpoint, just off the shoulder of a road a few hundred meters from a freeway exit.  Unfortunately for me, it turns out that "Coal Haul Road" is only for, well, hauling coal.  A steady procession of trucks come through to feed the power plant, which generates electrical power.  Access is closed to everybody else, so I was twarted 140 meters out.

Expedition

This looked like an extremely easy hashpoint, just off the shoulder of a road a few hundred meters from a freeway exit. Unfortunately for me, it turns out that "Coal Haul Road" is only for, well, hauling coal. A steady procession of trucks come through to feed the power plant, which generates electricity. Access is closed to everybody else, so I was thwarted 140 meters out.
