Location
In a field near Quernmore, 2.5 miles outside Lancaster.
Participants
- Angel - Who used the Android hashing app to create this page, and appologises for the messiness. I'll try to tidy up later.
Plans
- Walk to Lancaster University (check)
- Upgrade Ingress portals to L7 (check - Vive le Resistance)
- Head up the road to Quernmore
- Wander around aimlessly looking for the hash
- Curse my phone when I suddenly lose satellite signal
- Eventually find what's probably the right place
- Take a screenshot of the app as close as I can get
- Curse as my GPS fix jumps 5 miles away at the exact moment it takes the screenshot
- Take a photo of the location, and see the exact same effect
- Walk down to Williamson Park for a consolation pint at the Pavillion
(Not the best plan in the world, but based on past experience, probably the most likely)
Expedition
A Stain On My Honor
- Last time it was in Quernmore, I decided not to bother, thinking "It's so far from the road, it won't be reachable" ... Only to find out later that among the farmers' fields was a label "Quernmore Park", so it might have been reachable after all. I'm not letting that happen again!
- Should there be a gratuitous award for something like this? "A stain on my honour", for claiming a hash close to, or similar to, one you're embarrassed to have failed? -- Angel (talk) @54.0197,-2.7941 04:26, 25 April 2013 (EDT)
