Location
The hash was on the south-eastern shore of Lake George, north of Bungendore, about 45km from my office in Canberra. It was just west of the southern-most windmills of the Lake George Wind Farm, and about 0.5km north-east of the previous day's hash 2012-07-31 -35 149.

Plans
I planned to go on the day, during my lunch time.
Expedition
1PE
The expedition became a two-for-one with the site of the previous day's geohash 2012-07-31 -35 149 that was only about 0.5km away. I went on the second day and explored as close as possible to both hashes.
I discovered, as I expected, that the rural property leading to the sites was off-limits, with a sign to that effect.
I took a picture& of the property sign at the entrance, and left the two geohash 'certificates' on the sign.
I then attempted to gain access to the sand/gravel quarry to get a picture from there. I did not want to approach the quarry office as this would require some explanations that I was not willing to give. So, I followed a truck along the quarry access road until I came to the quarry's engineering area, and got another picture& of the truck going to the quarry-face with windmills in the background (where I would have gone to get to today's hash.) The drive back along the access road was without the truck's dust, and much more pleasant.
& My camera decided to not synch with the computer, so I'll put the pictures up when it does.
