Location
In a wooded area of Csillebérc, Budapest.
Participants
Plans
Take the bus to Buda that afternoon and walk the kilo or so to the hash, then reverse.
Expedition
Budapest is not only at a high latitude, but also on the eastern side of its time zone. So, this close to the winter solstice, the Sun goes down around 4, and lacking free time before 3 I was obliged to spend this expedition mostly in the dark. As far as problems go, this was overshadowed by the cold, for which my preparation consisted only of wearing a sweatshirt. One consequence of this was that, wanting to keep my hands in my pockets as much as possible, I didn't attempt any photography except at the hashpoint.
I had been worried about the plot containing the geohash being closed to the public or being too densely forested to traverse, but neither of these stumbling blocks emerged: the woods simply reached all the way to Irhás árok with no barrier or signage. It was on the way back that I encountered difficulties, as I took a different route and found residences cutting me off from the street. These were not, however, hard to veer around.
I am glad I took that alternative route back, as it granted me some excellent views of the city's nocturnal lights.
Tracklog
Photos
My best recorded GPS reading. Unfortunately, nowhere near my best recorded facial expression.
A nice view.
