Participants

Plans
- I don't have a GPS, but there are some reference points nearby, so I'll try to use them. I've made some measurements on Google Maps.
- Distance from a tree growing at the ditch, along and across:
- In case the tree isn't standing there any more - distance from ditch's bend:

- I plan to earn the Juggernaut achievement. Here's a straight line from the nearest section of paved road close to my home:
Expedition
We've reached the spot, albeit not in so straight a line - boggy terrain.
We have started on a street near our home. I have checked the compass and off we went through the field. The group of trees located just south of our 260° track was clearly seen so I just headed towards what looked like a rightmost one. It turned out that there was still another, smaller tree to the right so we went to the right of it. Thorns and dense patches of high dry cane weren't going to stop us! Finally we've arrived at the ditch crossing our track. I had originally indended to jump over it, but it happened to be much wider then it used to be closer to home, so I went with the backup plan of going a little to the south of our intended track along the ditch and cross it by the nearby bridge.

Err, actually our track goes to the right of the smaller tree.
Forests and glades of cane. Almost at the tree.
First signs of spring.

The ditch is too wide to jump over it.
