Khadgar had a quiet afternoon and was looking for an excuse for a drive.
The hashpoint was about a 45km drive from within the same graticule, and not far off an highway.
Google does not have high enough resolution images of the location to view the details of the hashpoint, and on arrival was found to be more greatly populated than expected. The area was mostly covered with commercial orchards.
We drove down the first driveway, and stopped when a resident came out to see who it was. The 'We're from the internet' excuse works wonders. We got parallel to the hashpoint, so moved to the next driveway, where we were greeted by the warning sign.
Proceeding, we were meet by the farmer coming down his driveway, who said he didn't mind us being there. Hash complete.
