srs0, thepiguy, Danatar
This expedition is part 4 of an ultrahash done on the way to the big 2009-08-29 52 13 meetup, and was on day 1 of a 3-day consecutive geohash:
- Day 1:
- Day 2:
- Day 3:
The three hashers continued from 51 11 towards 51 12 in a weary state. The driver, Danatar, was starting to get hungry by the time they neared Berlin, so they kept their eyes open for a restaurant along the autobahn. Having found one, they proceeded to look for the exit, and completely missed it. As such, they just continued along the way to the hashpoint and left food for afterwards.
Upon nearing the hashpoint, the first thing they noticed was the power station in the background. Srs0, having not seen the maps, voiced concern that the hashpoint may be inside the fenced off area. Danatar, who had made many plans, said otherwise, and sure enough he was correct.
They continued to drive towards the hashpoint along an extremely small dirt road, before stopping because the ruts in the road were so deep that it wasn't safe to continue with Danatar's car. They were only around 200-300m away, so they got out and started walking. Right where they started, they found an unopened bottle of sparkling wine, which thepiguy picked up, declaring it to be "hash wine!" A bit down the path, the road changed from dirt to ancient cobblestone, which was surprising as it looked to be at least a couple hundred years old! Ekorren should have more to say on this, since he saw it in the daylight.
Once the gps pointed perpendicular to the path, we left it and entered the harvested field, walking towards the power station. Thepiguy went ahead, doing his gps dance, while Danatar and Srs0 followed more slowly. Something faintly white in the dark caught srs0's eye, and he stared at it for a few seconds before announcing "something's here" to Danatar. Upon hearing this, Danatar promptly pulled out a flashlight, shone it on the "something", and there it was! Proof of Ekorren's visit! We had found a little flag that he left!
The three geohashers gathered around the little flag and took a bunch of pictures. Ultrahash completed! They then continued to a truck station for some quick food, and then Berlin, where Danatar dropped srs0 and thepiguy off at a hostel at around 00:30 on the 29th of August.
