Location

On a little meadow west of Bickenbach; not far from yesterdays hashpoint.

Participants

Plan

Todays hashpoint is not far from home and from yesterdays hashpoint. So I plan:

  • Do a little detour on the way home.
  • Drive to Bickenbach.
  • Arrive about 17:00 19:15.
  • Reach the hash point.
  • Return home.

Expedition

Success:

  • I drove to Bickenbach after our evening meal, arrived at about 19:45
  • and found a place to park the car in the darkness 400 m away from the hp.
  • When I walked along the little creek "Landbach" in the darkness I heard some splashes.
  • After switching on my torch there sat a nice big muskrat (Bisam), which did not know, what to do now.
  • I tried to take a photo with torch and smartphone.
  • After this I tried to reach the hp. It was very swampy there and the groundwater level was very high.
  • Good to find the hp at a dry place. :-)
  • I took a photo near the hash and of me,
  • smiled, :-)
  • walked back to the car and drove home.
