All went a bit later than planned... Left home around 11.00 and arrived very close to the geohash about 1h30' later. The bikeride was really good, quite a bit of hills though. At the site I planned on walking into the woods for some 20-30meters, but faced a rather high cliff. In the End I walked all the way around to reach the destination, Victory! I did not do anything stupid or dangerous to get back tot to my bike quickly. The tour around took quite long, so arrived very late at my other plans for the day.

All went a bit later than planned... Left home around 11.00 and arrived very close to the geohash about 1h30' later. The bikeride was really good, quite a bit of hills though. At the site I planned on walking into the woods for some 20-30meters, but faced a rather high cliff. In the End I walked all the way around to reach the destination, Victory! I did not do anything stupid or dangerous to get back tot to my bike quickly. The tour around took quite long, so arrived very late at my other plans for the day.
