Location

A lake surrounded by fences and walls near Oldenburg.

Plans

I didn’t want to reach this geohash, because there’s too much water. The lake seems to be named “Roter Steinweg See”. To make it more interesting, a STUPIDMAP light (not to scale) led me there.

Expedition

I reached this lake (i. e. the walls arround it) by bike. Along the way I found some other puddles, and on the way back home I made pictures of them instead of the geohash.

As I mentioned, the lake is surrounded by fences and walls, and in addition by ramparts, buildings and other stuff. It was difficult to spot the lake behind them. When I was driving arround the lake, I made a photo of an especially representative wall as proof of location. Later, still behind fences with barbed wire, I thought I could make a photo right across the lake to catch the geohash. Bing maps confirmed it: geohash straight forward! (Second picture)
