Personally, I am 1500 miles and three nations away, so I won't be there - not to mention that this falls into an inactive graticule, and every neighbouring graticule is also inactive. But that being said - not only is this globalhash in Europe and potentially accessible to some, it is less than 295 metres from a road... a road that the Google Street View car has visited
Check it out. It looks absolutely beautiful. Dirt road running along the valley floor of a canyon; the globalhash is just the other side of a small, rocky river (looks easily crossed in the image - obviously depending on local flow conditions), on a gentle grassy slope just at the base of some steep cliffs (if the location is definitely accurate and it's not actually halfway up).
I hope somebody might make it - this is a stunning location. Perfect picnic spot! -- SpiritofMaurice (talk) 20:57, 30 September 2013 (EDT)
