Location

In a clearing near Njurundabommen, south of Sundsvall.

Participants

Penthok

Plans

Of course I need to go hashing on Pi day! So I scouted the possible points and decided on the one in my home graticule.

Expedition

So I headed out towards the hashpoint, stopping by at McDonalds (unfortunately the only fast food place I knew that have pies) and then continuing down to the hashpoint. I parked at the parking lot outside the nearby church and started walking towards the point. I was a bit worried that it had ended up in the middle of the new road being built near there. I passed a bridge being built for it before turning off the road and heading into the forest. After a little walk I found the hashpoint in a small clearing next to a meadow so I set up camp there. Rolling out the, uh, "colorful tablecloth", putting up my picnic bag of burgers and taking out my eating utensils. Next I built a snowman next to the point and sat down and enjoyed my burgers and pie, sad over the fact that despite the day, I would not quite qualify for the Pie Geohash achievement. After that I explored the area and found a trap! Then I packed up and returned home.

Tracklog

Still no GPS.

Photos

The church near the hashpoint.
I found this trail leading towards the hashpoint, but not quite it turned out.
Setting up a picnic at the hashpoint! Showing my map, meal and snowman.
Closeup of my snowman. The snow was clearly not suited for snowman building.
Me grinning with... the horrible abomination of cutlery. A spoon, fork and knife all in one. Scary...
The Pi day pie.
