Expedition
- Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @50.9773,.0253 06:45, 19 January 2015 (GMT)
On Monday January 19th Sourcerer set out at 3am, drove 546 miles and attempted seven hashpoints in about 16 hours. Six were reached. This was the first success.
My Christmas present, a Tesco Hudl Android tablet running NavFree satnav, got me to the parking place with no errors. The return walk to the hashpoint was just under 1 km. There was a service road leading to the sewage works which I added to Openstreetmap. Then there was a walk along the field perimeter, in pitch dark, over hard frozen terrain. My hash-bitch (Lyla) loved this.
