We would have liked to make it an even 30, but unfortunately it finally turned wintery here (after the second snow fall and the average temperature dropping to below freezing, we decided harp questing season was officially over!). In the end the total number of locations visited comes to 29, 27 actually played at, 26 if you count the Buckhorn bridge and lock as one location.
