Expedition

Felix noticed that the day's hash fell inside an old coal mine. His friend Rhonda's job was to rehabilitate old coal mines, and that she lived and worked near this one. Suitably alerted, Rhonda set out during the day to achieve this.

She took a co-worker and a work experience person. They got very close to the hash at the bottom of the open cut brown coal mine. However, due to a pool of water, they were only able to get to within 15m of the hash.

This was both very lucky - a rare Restricted Area hash in the exact place Rhonda had access to - and very unlucky - very little of the bottom of the coal mine was covered in water but the exact hash location was.

I've added the Restricted Area achievement below for an honourable mention, even though it doesn't really count.
