Expedition

This was my toughest trip yet to find a geohash. The trip started quite well, it was a bit steeper and wetter than I had thought. After just over 2 km I found that I wanted to leave the path and try to get up a steep slope in the direction of the hash. There were several small cliffs if I had to climb around on the way up. I had to pull myself up by holding on to trees, bushes and heather. It took me a long time but after almost an hour in steep terrain I was finally at the top. Finding the hash went well. It was now time for a break and a rest.

I found that I was too exhausted to take the same route back to the car, so I decided that I would rather go down another route that seemed easier. I therefore decided that I would call my daughter on her mobile to ask if she could come pick me up to drive me back to my car. It was perfectly fine with her and she promised to come to pick me up so we arranged a place to meet. It was quite a steep descent but it went well. At the agreed meeting point, my daughter was already there so that she could drive me back to my car.

On the way home I stopped at a shop to buy something to drink, over a liter was drunk quite quickly. I hope it will be a long time until the next time I go on such a exhausting trip.
