Cambridge, United Kingdom/2010
From Geohashing
In 2010, there were 27 expeditions undertaken by Benjw, MagicIan and Sourcerer. In the previous year there were only 19 so it's pleasing to see an increase in activity.
Expeditions
- 26 December 2010 (Sun): Sourcerer visited a deeply frozen field between Castle Acre and Lexham, north of Swaffham, Norfolk UK arriving at about 7.30 pm.

- 24 September 2010 (Fri): A grassy area between two houses east of Boston, Lincolnshire. Sourcerer arrived 90 seconds before midnight and waited for the hashpoint to vanish. This was hash 5 of a pentahash taking in Canterbury, London East, London West, Northampton and the Cambridge graticules.
