Happy grin² and the marked hashpoint

Location

In the Odenwald between Hambach and Schannenbach.

Participants

Q-Owl
Q-Owla

Plan

Drive by car to the hash area after work and walk to the hashpoint.

Expedition

I drove home after work and drove together with my wife to the forest road between Hambach and Schannenbach. It was very foggy there and we saw remaining snow on the meadow north of the road.

We parked the car, walked a few hundred meters and found the hashpoint (and a nice place to hide a geocache) after a short dance. The tree near the hashpoint was marked already - presumably for logging. Taking of photos and a quick return to the car in the beginng rain.

Edit:
As Eupeodes wrote, there are some Problems with the coordinates today.
It seems that the coordinates, my smartphone displayed, are the right ones as shown in http://tjum.anthill.de/geohash.html:
Fractions: 0.67931475, 0.71392657
Coordinates: N 49°40.759 E 8°42.836

-We drove near the hashpoint and had a nice walk through an orchard with apple trees and walnut trees.
-Q-Owla stayed in the orchard and I made my way into the wood to the hp.
-The coordinates were not easy to find under the big beech trees. 3 or 4 m was the best result during a 15 minute dance. Good enough under those trees. Marking the hp, taking photos, back to Q-Owla and happy grin. :-) :-)
