Plans

I wanted to travel to Kaufungen by tram, and then to walk to the mountains, doing some usual things and return home.

Expedition


		I started the today's geohashing expedition at Oberkaufungen. I went there to by the tram no. 4 and from there I walked onto the mountains.
		At first I walked a little bit along the valley of the river Losse.
		Then I arrived in the forest with it's usual steep terrain, but I hoped for better angles near the hash.
		The higher up the mountain I walked the less steeper it became.
		I could have taken this way for a cut of the route, but because of the wetness I wanted to walk on the hard way as long as possible.
		This was the highest place of the walk with a rest of snow on the ways. I came from the right one and followed that to the middle.
		This is an other example of wetness. These trees are only waiting for geohashers to make them wet. In the highest resolution you see the drops!
		The way to the hash. This way has the name Pfannkuchenweg (pan cake path).
		This is the upper end of the cut. Only 200 meters away, but I took the detour, which was a mile long.
		All my maps tell, that this way would lead me nearer to the hash, but at first I wanted to try the hard way again as long as possible.
		Somewhere there is the hash.

Look around!

		Between the forest way and the hash was a stripe of mud, maybe as a leftover from the construction. I found a way to pass the mud between two trees, which had built a gate.
		I found these posts in the forest, informing the fellow geohashers, that velociraptors will come to eat this part of the forest.
		This place shall become a motorway. Sometimes earlier I found this nest. Maybe for velociraptors?
		There is a video surveillance in the forest!
