Expedition
Rob was staying at Mt Beauty with his family when he noticed this one.
The broader Victorian geohashing community was sceptical about how achievable the hash would be, given the usual state of fire trails in this area. However, Rob and family proved them all wrong as the photos below attest.
The team headed off at 10:26am, taking the family hybrid-electric 4WD. They had supplies, and the fire trail was excellent.
After 40 minutes or so they parked and headed up into the hash-zone. They tried to follow an animal trail but it was a red herring (not usually found on land).
They achieved maximum hash success at 12:06pm and returned to their car and their place of stay.
