Plans

Baarde will cycle there in the afternoon. He expects to arrive around 16:00.

Expedition

As I previously said, some French municipalities are oddly shaped and their boundaries make no sense. Today was a perfect example. While the geohash is located near the outskirts of Illhausern, it (as well a the surroundings fields and even a couple of houses), is technically part of Colmar, which is more than 10 kilometers away.

I left home in the afternoon and cycled from Sélestat to Illhaeusern. The coordinates were in a ploughed field. No plant was growing yet, so I casually walked to the hashpoint.

After recording proof, I continued toward Colmar and then took the EuroVelo 5 to go back home.
