Location

The hash lies on a hill in a forest southeast of Spangenberg.

Participants

Plans

The plan was to hitchhike to the hash, do some secret activity, and travel home.

Expedition


		I started at home at 12 o'clock, took the trams 7 and 8 to Kaufungen-Papierfabrik (paper plant) and started there to hitchhike at 12:45. After some minutes I got a car to Hess. Lichtenau, I passed there the city, then after some minutes again I got a car to Spangenberg, where I arrived at 13:45. Then I walked for three kilometers along the country roads and after crossing a meadow I entered the forest.
		Just at that place I was 140 meters away from the hash. At first I could walk easily upwards, but then I slided some 20 meters on my knees, because the hill was so steep.
		proof 1 and proof 2. I needed not to dance around, instead the pointer of my garmin danced around, sometimes being meters away, sometimes only two meters away. I couldn't get a mark nearer than these two meters.
view to the north	view to the west (uphill)	view to the south
		view to the east, the stub in the front seems to be the hash. top of the trees in the forest (I always see the trunks of the trees)
the site of the hash from some meters away	after visiting the hash I used a stub of a tree as a seat to take a small meal	a geohasher on a hill
		After the meal I started to go home. While the meal I heard raptors from the other side of the mountain ridge. So I tried at first to walk across the ridge, but I found out that there was a deep valley and I could not enter the valley from my side. But I could see the raptors, making something like haymaking but with big trees.
		With the help of these two sticks I stalked down the hill. For the way up I needed 15 minutes, for the way down I needed 30 minutes.
		After a long walk around the hill and through the forest I entered the fields of Spangenberg and from the first place I had a good view to the castle of Spangenberg.
		Views of Spangenberg, the main street and from the castle
