Plans

Extreme lack of sleep made it seem like a good idea to drive ~70 miles round trip, largely on dirt roads, to get the 2nd to last county for the reverse regional achievement on my home graticule.

Expedition

When I noticed that today's hash was in the small bit of Elmore county which sticks into my home graticule, I knew I wanted to try for it. But being on a weekday I didn't think I'd manage to get off early enough to reach the vicinity of the hash before dark. But then I ended up finihing at work by about 3pm, so I headed out to the hash. Reaching the hash wasn't too dificult. I was able to find dirt roads of varying quality to get to within a thousand feet or so of the hash. I nearly qualified for a tron hash by taking a different route home than there, but I didn't record a tracklog, and did spoil it anyway with a single U-turn after missing a turn I needed to take. It was overall an enjoyable and successful hash.
