Plans

Expedition

My first geohash!!!

After getting a spare part at Ikea, used the VrtuCar to go to Moodie Dr. Stopped at the McEwen where a smart guy told me everything about fuel and Ethanol blend. Road shoulder was really slipery as I stopped near the geohash. Had a winter boots I could have gotten closer.

Tracklog

Photos

About as close as I'll get to the geohash without winter boots or jumping that fence. @45.2189,-75.7733
Other side of Moodie drive from the geohash. These kinds of desolate landscapes just faacinate me. @45.2195,-75.7733

by being prevented from reaching the (45, -75) geohash on 2015-01-11 by an impassable and unforeseen snowfield of indeterminate depth.
