Expedition

This hashpoint happened to be very close to the one I visited 13 days ago, and I reckoned that the most convenient way to approach it would be along the same roads as then. I could also have approached from the south along the sandy roads, but I had no idea whether they would actually be traversable. So I decided to do a déjà vu trip and follow the same route to the ridge where I would have to walk a slightly longer distance.

I had much stuff to do during the day, and I was at home at about half past eight. If I would leave for the geohash immediately, I would have just barely enough daylight left that I could reach the hashpoint while being able to take photos, so I did just that. I quickly changed my clothes and shoes and left. Being wiser after the previous expedition, I wore my Nokian rubber boots with 40-cm shafts that would definitely be enough for any amount of snow that I would encounter.

I parked the bicycle in the same place as last time. The maintenance road of the mast was clearer but still a little muddy, so I did not want to cycle on it with my narrow tyres. I walked up to the skiing track, taking photos of familiar places on the way, and continued to the hashpoint via the mast. I could also have taken a shorter, straighter path from the parking site, but I wanted to follow the same route. It was getting progressively darker but not too dark yet for the mobile phone camera.

The hashpoint was located in a pine forest next to a small forest road. I was barely able to take the proof photos and a selfie. Despite still having enough daylight to see with my eyes, the camera was struggling to focus and to take sharp photos because the exposure times needed to be long. If I had a systems camera and a stand, I would have had no problems taking photos. It was good enough and easy this way though.

I returned along the same route and eventually was back at the bicycle again. At this point, it was getting really dark, but it was no problem on the road. I took a slightly shorter route back home, and indeed according to my GPS receiver, I ended up cycling 13.0 km and walking 2.0 km in total.
