Location

Close to the road at Båtkroksvägen 5, Stavsnäs, Sweden

Participants

Per S

Plans

Wow. This hash is only 20 feet (6 m) away from the hash i visited on July 21, 2011.

I will try to drive to this hashpoint after work and hopefully catch the last rays of daylight.

Expedition

I started out at about 5:20 p.m. and drove out to the Hashpoint. It was about 20 miles. The hashpoint was visible from the road and accessible by foot. It was right next to a house/cabin, but outside the property.

It was already dark when I arrived, but I tried to take matching pictures to the ones I took on the last trip. The xkcd marker from last year was not there anymore, but I took a picture in the same spot and put up a marker on a tree a few yards away. The notice board next to the roadsign had been replaced and the neighbours had gotten a new mailbox.

I didn't get a screen shot of the Geohash Droid app when I was at the hash, though :( I have a new phone and failed to press the "save" check mark after taking the screen shot.
