Location

In the middle of a field between Schifferstadt and Waldsee.

Participants

DODO, Q-Owl

Plans

DODO: It's only 8 KM from home and so I'll try to visit this location on my way to the office tomorrow morning. I hope to be there around 8 o'clock.

Q-Owl: I may be there around 2 o'clock pm. - No other time possible, sorry.
Let's see whether I'll find DODO's footprints.

Or maybe you'll find my glove, that I've lost on the field. DODO (talk)

I did'nt see any glove. :-)

Expedition

DODO: ... ...

Q-Owl: I took an 1.5 hour break at work, drove to Schifferstadt and stopped near the hashpoint. The hp lay on a fresh ploughed field. Good to wear boots. Near the hashpoint I found some footprints: It looked like a short GPS dance. :-)
Having found the exact position quickly, I marked it on the ground, took some photos and went back to the car.
On the way home I found a Hornbach's, where I could buy an urgently needed tool which is only sold at these hardware stores.
