Location

A few meters off Smith Road, near Falkland.

Participants

Plans

The location was closer to where I work, so I decided I would go directly there after I was done. This meant I was wearing my work clothes, didn't pack any supplies, and had to borrow a camera from a coworker. I know this isn't unusual in urban graticules, but for me, it was a first!

Expedition

An easy drive, but the location was fenced off. I always chicken out from Ambassador achievements, but there was an unfriendly sign. Resting my hand on the fence scored 15m from the coordinates. Perhaps I should of tried blocking the signal until it registered my location as being inaccurately within 10?
