Location

In the forest, not far from the Skifjell hill in Lillesand.

Participants

Plans

The plan was to drive up to Storemyr. Walk from the car to the hash, then walk to the Skifjell hill and back to the car.

Expedition

This was my first geohash. I walked about 40 minutes from the car to get to the coordinates. Along the way I picked and ate some blueberries. Yummy :-) I took some photos at the site, and then went on a round trip to the Skifjell hill and then back to the car. At home I found a tick that wanted to suck my blood, had to remove it with tweezers.

Tracklog

Tracklog.

Photos

Picked some.
