Participants

Plans

I'm 6 hours away, one way, so it's going to be a long drive. So much for getting work done. -thunk

8 AM local time. Now making preparations.

Expedition

Full writeup coming soon. Notes below.

  • Now stopped on Kansas Turnpike plaza. 350 or so km to go. -- Thunk (talk) @37.7664,-96.9812 16:22, 28 June 2016 (GMT+00:00)
  • Now stopped in Manhattan for lunch. 150 km to go.

Not good with technology today. -- Thunk (talk) @39.1851,-96.5605 18:24, 28 June 2016 (GMT+00:00)

  • Qualified success. I probably reached the hashpoint, located in a field of some sort (not corn). However, I was beset by a lack of GPS accuracy, and I had multiple points 50 or so metres apart registered as the correct point. I took measurements at most of them, and there were certainly no further obstacles between me and the point, so I think I made it. -- Thunk (talk) 21:56, 28 June 2016 (GMT+00:00)
