| Sat 26 Oct 1985 in Hannover: 52.8305558, 9.5936990 geohashing.info google osm bing/os kml crox |
Location
The Retrohash is located in a forest near a street to Walsrode.
Participants
Plans
The plan is to do a Welcome Back to the Future double hash: Visit both a 1985-10-26 retrohash and a 2015-10-21 geohash on 2015-10-21. I'll do it in 52,9. The attempted route is:
- Hannover
- Train ride
- Bennemühlen
- Bike ride
- 2015-10-21 52 9 (Sprockhof)
- Bike ride
- Lindwedel
- Train ride
- Walsrode
- Bike ride
- 1985-10-26 52 9 (near Walsrode)
- Bike ride
- Walsrode
- Train ride
- Hannover
Expedition
Coming from 2015-10-21 52 9, I took the train to Walsrode. The train tracks were quite close to the retrohash, so I could see the site of the coordinates from the train. However, after arriving in Walsrode, I had to ride the whole way back.
Walsrode apparently chose to advertise itself using a toucan as a logo, which probably comes from the fact that Walsrode is famous for it's Vogelpark (bird park, or bird zoo), which also is the only thing I knew about Walsrode. Not only did I find a toucan on signs, but there also was a roundabout that was decorated with several toucans.
It was easy to get to the coordinates, they were just next to the bike path (which is next to the road) a couple of meters into the forest. After taking proof, I rode back to Walsrode and from there, to home.

The Retrohash
Proof - I'm far away from today's geohash, but at the correct retrohash coordinates.
The surrounding forrest, with the street in the background.
More of the forest...
And more of the street.
