Expedition

For me, none of the weekend's hashpoints were worth going for. But then, I happened to notice that Monday's point in 67,23 is right in the village of Muonio and in an accessible place. I cannot possibly do a day trip this far (about 400 km from Oulu) on a working day without skipping work, but a friend of mine lives in Muonio, so I messaged her and asked whether she would like to visit the point. As it was in an easily distinguishable location, it would be easy to visit without satellite navigation. She was immediately interested and promised to take a picture when she went by.

At about 10 AM, I received a picture, shown below. Comparing to the aerial photos and Google Street View, it is obvious that this was the correct place. I drew some lines on the aerial photo and determined that she was at most five metres off the correct location, so close enough, I guess.

The friend also works somewhere in the village and went to work on this day. I do not want to reveal where she works, but it is within a kilometre radius from the hashpoint, as is pretty much all of the village. Thus, she gets a Cubicle Geohash honorable mention among other ribbons.
