Plans

I was not quite sure if I would have time to do this one. Eventually my schedule cleared and went for this hash. Go somewhen in the late morning, and try to reach it in 2 hours. Then come back. If in the mood, find a few caches on the way back.

Expedition

As I said, I wasn't quite sure I would have time today for this hash. It is not exactly close, but it has more or less direct and fast paths towards it. I calculated that in maybe two hours I could reach it. And today it is not so warm (21ºC), and not really windy, so good weather to ride my bike.

Well, I ended up having free time today, so I went after it. I grabbed Winterbuche at... 13:00, and brought some lunch with me (this may be a solid proof that I am not really German but south-european since I hadn't had lunch, yet, at 13 ;) ). The first part until Kemnitz is very well known. I take this path many many times, but right after Kemnitz, in Neuendorf, I took some new roads, turning east. Here I passed by some little settlements, Stiltow, Gustbein, Pritzwald and reaching Rubenow. Actually, in Gustbein I took the wrong road (well, not the one I had in mind) and it can bee seen in the Tracklog how I pass by Wusterhusen. Luckily I corrected it fast enough ¿^^.

In Rubenow I found some confusing signs (Hauptstraße pointing everywhere), but taking the main road was what I needed. And suddenly turn left (south). Here I was in between fields and luckily enough this path leaded me directly towards the hash. It fell in the middle of some hay bale storage area. It took 1:30, better as planed :) And here I had finally something to eat. It is probably the lamest picnic you can imagine, see picture, but that is all I gathered quickly at home. I also didn't to bring too much weight. The bag makes me sweat enough as it is...

After that I still had energy for some caches (well, I had to have energy to ride back home). First I went by a funny location. A Cow-Milk-Filling Station. Like a Gas Station but instead of Gas, you buy Milk. Directly from the... cow farm. You can't get it more pure ;)

After that, I went to search for a last cache, and took the same path home. Well, the path I planned, correcting the error I made going here. I loaded some podcasts on my phone and heard them while I approached Kemnitz and Greifswald again, reaching home at... 17h. Nice expedition.
