Location
In the middle of Snettisham Common, near the coast of The Wash
Participants
- PaintedJaguar
- MrsPaintedJaguar
Plans
Looking to do a short walk in the area around the hashpoint, but can't make the standard 4pm meetup time. The plan will be:
- 15:35 train from Cambridge to King's Lynn, arrving at 16:21 (remarkably cheap at £4.95 for a railcard discuounted return ticket)
- 16:30 bus (number 10) from King's Lynn to Snettisham, arriving at 17:08 (am willing to bet that this will cost more than the train!)
which leaves ~50 minutes before sunset at 18:00, or maybe 1.25 hours before it's dark. The planned walk claims that it will take 1.5 hours to do 2.6 miles, which is quite a slow pace - 1.5 hours including the diversion to the hashpoint seems more likely. With the last part on residential roads, darkness shouldn't be a problem. Even so, to have a little bit more light for the coastal views, we'll do the walk in reverse, and will therefore be visiting the hashpoint on the way back inland, maybe at about 18:00.
A meal may then be had at a pub in Snettisham; 20:50 is the time of the last bus that still allows a connection with a train back to Cambridge.
Double-checking the map just before setting out suggests there is a possibility of claiming a Juggernaut achievement on this expedition, but we've not left enough time to plan it in detail, so we'll just record the entire tracklog and check afterwards!
Expedition
Success! Full write-up to follow.
