Location

On the outskirts of Eppenhain.

Participants

Plans

Good weather, we're stuck at home otherwise anway, let's go hashing.

Expedition

From where we're living it's actually quite a nightmare to get to Eppenhain by car because you have to go all the way around through Ruppertshain. So Mampfred wisely decided that w might as well go to Ehlhalten and walk from there as there is a nice little road going all the way through.

Little did he realize that Ehlhalten is at the bottom of the hill on which Eppenhain is located so we went straight up pretty much all the way (~ 1.2km), yay. Having made it up there, we found the hash to be behind a row of houses which was utterly unreachable. From one angle there where thorny bushes which we penetrated for about 100 meters before find a "do not enter" sign, grrr. The other entrace would have been a little road going off from the main road which ended in a huge chicken coop which we couldn't cross.

We were disappointed enough to not even take a stupid grin shot.

Funny side note: while climbing the path up the hill, my phone alerted me that relet just joined Telegram. I have no idea if that's even still his number, but it was spooky coming in while on an expedition either way, we actually met back in 2011 for Geohashing day 2011 ;)
