Plans

Noticed that today's Geohash was on the extreme western edge of the graticule, and realised that this would place the Coromandel Graticule within reasonable driving distance. It was a lovely summer's day, so took an extended lunch break to visit it.

Expedition

Left at midday in the hope of arriving at 1pm (4pm was not possible for me). As it happens, did not get to the geohash until 1:11pm. Took my photos in each direction and used a piece of chalk to mark the spot. Stayed about 30 minutes, before heading off to do a couple of nearby geocaches.
