• Mampfred

Plans

We'll make a detour on our way home from working in Erfurt. If we're lucky we'll finally get the first successful hash in 50,9 :)

Expedition

Very uneventful, wedrove as close as possible and hiked the last 300 meters across frozen grassland and the rest of the snow that seems to be stuck in this area. Speaking of which, finally a frozen hash which we didn't quite expect as the rest of germany seems to be a lot warmer that this strange place in the middle of nowhere ;)
