view to NE in the morning

Location

In Bensheim-Auerbach near a voltage transformation substation and about 200 m west of ALDI.

Participants

Q-Owl

Plan

Surprise in early morning: Todays hashpoint is less then 1 km from home and about 80 m next to the route I drive to work.^^
So I planned to drive by car near the hash area, walk to the hashpoint, take some photos, return to the car and drive to work.

Nearest geocache: GC46HY5 about 450 m as a deer runs / 500 m walk.

Expedition

I reached the hashpoint area at 07:35. The hashpoint is situated in an old little orchard under an elder busch which grows next to the remains of an old apple tree. The estate south to the orchard is a voltage transformation substation.

I took some photos, marked the hashpoint with a big green leaf, smiled and drove to work.

-We drove to the Guldenklinger Hoehe, parked the car and found [http://coord.info/GC5DZGT 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 [http://opencaching.de/OCBE42 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 [http://www.klicktipps.de/fernwandern-e1.php European Long Distance Path E1], which we walked on our way back to the car.
-I took a few photos for "my" cache [http://opencaching.de/OC11186 OC11186] and we found some nice mushrooms: [[wikipedia:Boletus_edulis|boletus edulis]] (Steinpilze), [[wikipedia:Macrolepiota_procera|parasol mushrooms]] (Riesenschirmlinge) and [[wikipedia:Boletus_badius|bay boletes]] (Maronenröhrlinge).
