In some light vegetation, in Altona Coastal Park, in the inner south western suburbs of Melbourne.

[edit] Plans
Drive there after an MUMC meeting. Walk a few hundred metres through the grass to the point.
[edit] Expedition
As planned. Stuck Alex's bike in the back of my car, where it got friendly with my bike (still in there from a weekend mountain bike orienteering expedition). Used the geohashing app on Alex's phone to update this page live. The vegetation was very interesting...what looked like grass was actually a sort of very low lying succulent, like pigweed. At one point we had fears that the point would be in swampy wetlands, but it was actually relatively dry. A hundred metres further north would have been a different story.
