Plans

To catch a new graticule on the home way from Sankt Peter Ording to Hesse

Expedition

As planned, we went back some 700km by car and wanted to use this opportunity to visit a new geohash graticul, if the coordinates are convenient. In this case, that meant near Autobahn 23 or 7 and it worked out. Hence, we went past the village Wintermoor. The geohash point was easy to reach, directly off a highway. When we arrived, the GPS showed 17 m distance. We got out, did a few steps and already - coordinates reached! After the geohash dance and some photos we drove on. The building was on a rather big agricultural complex and seemed to be a silo of some sort, potentially a biogas plant, as another one of similar dimensions was just opposite.
