Plans
The hash lies only 10 kilometer south from the place where I work, so I am planning to drive there after work.
Expedition
Right after work I drove to Binsförth and parked my car only some 200 meters away from the hash. I walked over a meadow for some 150 meters and then I noticed that I ended up in a little swamp. The vegatation here was very obvious, but I thought I could give it a try - well, better not! At only 15 meters from the hash, my shoes and socks were soaking wet and I couldn't stand still at one place, because I noticed how I was sucked into the swamp, so I'd better get out of here!
I was still thinking about trying this one with rain boots, which I had in my car, so I walked back to my car. But in the same time, I noticed a farmer on his tractor, heading in my direction! Maybe he spotted me and wondered what I was doing there? I don't know the answer, but I decided to call it quits and drove back home...
