Location

In a wooded area near Newport. This is pretty much the optimal location for me to reach a hash in this graticule, so I'm going for it.

Expedition

I walked to the station, and having allowed slack time at several points while planning, I reached my platform 20 minutes early. This was my first train journey in several years, but it all went fine and I arrived at Newport station at 12:43 as planned.

...

My route took me along 150m of the Harcamlow Way, compared to 200m on 2022-01-21 52 0, which I didn't notice at the time. At this rate, I'll have walked the whole thing by the time I've done my 2600th hash!

I was a little worried about reaching the hash, because the footpath I was relying on didn't exist on google maps. Thankfully, the real world beat google maps on this occasion. I paused behind the sewage works to observe the local wildlife (unfortunately the hashcat wasn't friendly enough to get me an achievement), then carried on towards the hash.
