Expedition

This hashpiont was 3000km from home but only 25km from my holiday accommodation. I walked about 1km to the Estacion de Guaguas (Bus Station) and caught the 09:30 guagua to Los Christianos. From there it was about 3.5km to the hashpoint. The walk started through holiday accommodation but quickly turned into a mountain path, rocky and steep but not dangerous. The hashpoint was easily found and it was marked with a naturally occuring upside down Google pin made out of solidified volcanic lava. The route home was less easy. A circular route looked possible and indeed it was but I aborted several tracks due to steep ravines. A fitter walker could get through but not a 100kg 61 year old fat bastard!
