West of Gainesville on the outskirts of the sprawling metropolis of Archer.

Fly over the hash at low altitude then climb to 5280'+ AGL for the Mile High achievement

To be updated soon.

Georgeous day for flying!
Note the contrail going from upper left of picture. You can see its shadow on the ground. I love flying.
Approximate location of hash point
First pass at about 1300'. Yellow is the hash point. Measuring from Google Earth I came within 7' of the point. I amazed myself.
Second pass...about 5400' for the Mile High. Came within 70' this time. Still respectable considering I'm a mile high.
Oblique view of my two passes showing the relative elevation. Hashpoint labeled GNV.
Overhead view of the two passes. The whole bit out to the west, changing colors, is me climbing from 1300' to 5400'. The 360 over Archer was because I realized I wouldn't have the altitude for the Mile High.
