Location

In the woods near Driebergen

Participants

Palmpje (talk) was keen on visiting this point.

Plans

Plan was to bring home a Geocaching trackable near the UMC and then continue to the hashpoint, hopefully arriving at hash-o-clock.

Expedition

I ended up leaving home somewhat later than planned and then too a wrong exit on the A27 to make things worse. So I knew making it at hash-o-clock would be hard if I went to bring home the TB first. I did that anyway and then noticed that a challenge cache was only about 250 meters away. After that I walked back to the car and proceeded to a well known area. A few muddy spots from rather heavy rainfall earlier in the day and previous afternoon but otherwise easy walking to the vicinity of the hashpoint. I had to go off the paths for about 30 meters (not really allowed but nobody there to tell me) and after some dancing found the hashpoint to be next to a big tree. Success!
