Expedition
- Currently at home, waiting for the day to cool down before attempting the hash. Today's attempt came vey close to not happening due to a kidney stone, but fortunately the episode did not last long. -- LucasBrown @32.9769,-117.0528 13:40, 11 August 2012 (PDT)
Upon reaching the wash containing the hashpoint, the weather had become somewhat inclement—thunderstorms with light precipitation and a temperature of about 30°C. The lightning would interfere with the GPS signals and was frequent enough that my phone couldn't get a good-enough bearing on my position to yield an error of less than 100 meters or so. I called it good enough once I had a reading that put me within 60 meters of the hashpoint.
