Location

In the Odenwald east of Heppenheim, near Mittershausen.

Participants

Q-Owl
Q-Owla

Plan

Drive by car near the hash area, walk to the hashpoint, take some photos find some geocaches and return to the car.
Nearest geocache: GC2Y643 360 m as a deer runs / 1.5 km walk.

Nearest points to start the walk:

N 49° 39.475 E 008° 42.840 Mittershausen: 1.5 km
N 49° 38.980 E 008° 42.630 Guldenklinger Hoehe near the B460 (location of GC5DZGT): 1.7 km
N 49° 40.137 E 008° 41.345 Ober-Hambach (nice walk): 2 km

I don't know whether I will have time to visit the hashpoint. If yes, I try to reach it between 15:30 and 16:00.

Expedition

We drove to the Guldenklinger Hoehe, parked the car and found GC5DZGT within five minutes. We met two other geocachers and told them a little bit about geohashing.

Then we walked along the edge of the forest on nice trails up the hill and found OCBE42 (585 m distance to the hash). The weather was and warm. But we went too fast for Q-Owla and she decided to stay at/on a bench with a nice view over the valley.

I reached the hashpoint at 15:45, marked it with crossed branches, took some photos, smiled and went back to Q-Owla. The hashpoint lay in a forest with wounderful high beech trees and very near to the European Long Distance Path E1, which we walked on our way back to the car.

I took a few photos for "my" cache OC11186 and we found some nice mushrooms: boletus edulis (Steinpilze), parasol mushrooms (Riesenschirmlinge) and bay boletes (Maronenröhrlinge).

On the way home we solved one of the Safari Caches: OC1176D. I like this cache type. :-)
