Location

A field just north of Coombe, South Australia

Participants

  • Pwc (talk)
  • Pwc's boss
  • Pwc's co-worker (stayed in the car)

Plans

I had a work conference in Adelaide so needed to get their from Melbourne. Myself, my boss and a coworker decided to drive. I sneakily reviewed the hashpoints in each graticule we were passing through and identified this as the most practical. Still... to convince others to make a detour during a six hour drive requires a degree of subtlety and cunning.

Expedition

We made it to the hashpoint successfully and met three cows along the way! Full narrative to come.
