Next to some trees near a footpath close to the Queen Elizabeth Country Park visitor centre.
Participants
Macronencer is planning to go.
Plans
Macronencer plans to visit, and perhaps call on a friend who works in the park. Said friend might even assist with a drag-along achievement, and/or lend a hand with permission, should there be any access issues.

Queen Elizabeth Country Park is a splendid place to bring the family, especially in the summer!
We are just passing planet Earth
Trail markers. The one at the bottom is the Space Trail!
We have arrived at Jupiter. Remember, kids... attempt no landing on Europa.
My life recently seems to consist of taking the muddier of two forks in forest tracks.
I was right. This one's muddier. But not as muddy as yesterday!
I couldn't make out whether that was water at the bottom. Luckily (kinda) it was more mud.
My first view of the hash point. It's just in front of that copse, at the left end.
Panorama of hash point
I surveyed the other side of the copse, in case there was easier access. It was fenced in like Area 51. I considered a Naruto Run, but I think the barbed wire might have had something to say about that.
As close as I could get while still on the path and chickening out.
Two gates stand between Macronencer and Glory. They're both unlocked, with no warning signs. Can he overcome his fear of breaking rules?
Yes, he can!
Jubilant at the hash point!

Chuck, taking a breather in the grass.
Here we slip again...
Arty shot
Hey, what a great idea! Make your own art from natural resources.
I made my own art from natural resources.
Haha! I wonder what people will make of that.
Are these deer tracks?
Moss Tentacles. These looked amazing.
I like this flower against the spiky background.
I really love woodland like this.
No stupid Keep Out sign that actually means it-is-forbidden-to-prevent-people-entering this time. I approve.
