Location

On a farm track next to a drainage ditch between Halvergate and the river Yare, Norfolk, UK.

Participants

Sourcerer

Expedition

The hashpoint was 2km from the nearest parking place. Farm tracks led right to the location. The walk was in moonlight and there was a cold east wind. In the shelter of trees, the ground was starting to freeze. At the destination, I was safely inside the "circle of uncertainty" but perhaps the hashpoint was in the drainage ditch. I didn't go paddling!

The midnight timing allowed two hashpoints to be reached with only one car journey.

My journey home was uneventful after getting slightly lost.
