The Place
On a farm just off the road to Mount Baw Baw, Noogee, Victoria.
Expedition
Felix Dance
When I looked at the coordinates for Sunday's geohash I saw that it was in Brighton East - quite close to my Port Melbourne home. Little did I realise what a massive day this would turn out to be.
No sooner did I send out an email to all the geohashes I knew about saying I'd be there at 2pm that I noticed that the geohash point for the unhashed graticule to the east was also accessible - and, as it covers most of Victoria's southern alps, this hardly ever happens. And that was it - I knew I had to get both of them.
I got up in time for 8:30am train to Warragul, carrying two sci-fi books, one hard cover, because I was about to finish the first, and a lot of food, but no front light. This was a mistake.
The ride to the hashpoint was extremely scenic, with a beautiful sunny day and very verdant vegetation. On the way I stopped at a milk bar in Neerim South where the lady asked if I was going up to the top of Mount Baw Baw.
"No, just to Noogee", I said. "Oh, well that's alright then", she replied.
That comment suddenly changed my whole day - I had to climb Mount Baw Baw... (Details to follow shortly).
