After work, I drove out to the location of the hash.

Unfortunately, it was muddy. I found a spot nearby to park my car, and trudged about 500ft through the mud to reach the coordinates. Once there I took some pictures, and headed back. Not a particularly interesting or eventful hash, but I'm glad it was reachable as it's been a couple weeks since I was last able to get out hashing.

Expedition

After work, I drove out to the location of the hash. It was somewhat questionable whether or not I'd be able to reach it, as about half of the fields in the area are fenced or still have crops growing. But fortunately, this one was bare and unfenced. Unfortunately, it was muddy. I found a spot nearby to park my car, and trudged about 500ft through the mud to reach the coordinates. Once there I took some pictures, and headed back. Not a particularly interesting or eventful hash, but I'm glad it was reachable as it's been a couple weeks since I was last able to get out hashing.
