Location
On a pasture area at the very scenic road between Cebreros and San Bartolomé de Pinares.

Expedition
This was a public holiday in Spain, so I had time and wanted to give it a try, although, as far as I could see on the Maps, the geohash resided on a fenced property. At least there seemed to be a reasonable parking place for the Goldwing, right where the road came closest to the geohash.
So I took again the Goldwing this time, with recharged battery after she did not fire up when I wanted to go on the last expedition 2021-10-08_40_-4. The route passed by the geohash from expedition 2021-08-28_40_-4 and thus also by the two satellite tracking stations I had visited there. The current geohash was located in a beautiful part of the Sierra Oeste which I had seen for the first time in expedition 2021-06-06_40_-4.
The geohash was indeed behind a fence, but it was acessible through kind of a gate, not far from the road, and in benign terrain, so one could in principle call it an easy one. However, I had some mixed feelings at times…

The planned parking place as seen on the Maps works out well.
The geohash is 500 meters behind this improvised gate.
It looks like I could open this.
This once read CIERRA LA PUERTA — close the gate. Hm…, asking me to close it implies allowing me to open it, no?
So I pass the gate. Wind power plants are spanning the horizon.
Terrain is easy, so here I am.
It's at the bush in the front.
There are some cows (I think).
From a few meters from the geohash, I can see the parked bike. I switch to the telelens and take a photo.
While I'm at it, I also take a closer photo of the wind power plants…
… and of a cow. Cow? Wait a minute, this one looks male! I hurry back, looking over my shoulder to check for a raging bull, …
… pass the gate and close it carefully.
On the ride back, I stop at a very scenic part of the road…
… for a breathtaking view of Cebreros embeded in the mountainous landscape.
