Expedition

In the afternoon, I took the train to Cloppenburg and the bus to Osterloh/Hempen. In the bus, I got within the radius of uncertainty, but I also wanted to reach the coordinates on foot, so I walked the rest of the distance.

The coordinates were on the side of the road, but on the side opposite to the sidewalk on which I approached them. I waited for a few cars to pass before I crossed the street, located the coordinates and recorded proof.

This geohash is located very close to a graticule corner, aka a confluence point, in this case the intersection of 53° North and 8° East. I walked to Aumühlen, where the confluence is located, and reached it on a meadow behind a farm.

The Bösel/Aumühlen bus stop is nearby, so I took the bus from there to Cloppenburg and the train back home to Osnabrück.
