Location

Den Hoorn, municipality of Midden-Delfland.

Participants

Plans

Judging from Google Maps, the hash appeared to be in water. But it was close to home and easy to get to, so I thought I'd try it and see how close I could get.

Expedition

Got on my bike and rode towards the hash. It was located right at the edge of a pond/stream behind some glasshouses (where they grow cucumbers, tomatoes and apparently also grapes; who knew?). I walked as close to the water as I dared (tricky because the edge wasn't very sturdy), and I did manage to get within the margin of error of my GPS. Took a few pictures and rode home again.
