Location

2015-06-23 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 8850.jpg The hash lies on the southern edge of a field near Wolfterode. I had been on the same field on 2015-06-23 51 9, but had no luck. The hash of 2015-06-23 51 9 lay 17 meters to the left in the field from the right way, today's hash lies two meters left of the left edge.

Participants

GeorgDerReisende

Plans

Hitchhiking and walking. I want to be there at hash o'clock.

Expedition

I started at home at one o'clock and started to hitchhike at 13:30. After some minutes a Corvette stopped. Because my destination was Vockerode, the driver took the road across the Hoher Meißner mountains. On the top, the mountains didn't look special.

But on the other side of the mountains, there was a viewing point. The driver stopped and I had a good view of the area of research with the hash. Wolfterode lies at the left, Vockerode is right down and Abterode is above of it. Additionally I had a detailed view to the hash area: Wolfterode at the left and the hash at the right.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2081.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2082.jpg That was the car.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2124.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2132.jpg I left Vockerode on the wrong side, and as I noticed this, I took the next fieldway and found some not mapped grassy fieldways, leading my direct to the hash. There was a valley between me and the hash, but I found a bridge.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2140.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2151.jpg At the height of the hash I left the way and walked along the row of trees to the hash. I found it without a dance. And I looked around.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2153.jpg to the north, 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2154.jpg to the west, 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2155.jpg to the south,
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2156.jpg to the east 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2158.jpg and to the geohasher.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2162.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2167.jpg But I arrived at the hash one hour too early. So I had to wait for hash o'clock and for other geohashers to come. I sat under one of these wonderful apple trees and waited. The time came, but the geohashers didn't.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2169.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2185.jpg I had a view to the countryside and to the plants. And to some animals, but I couldn't take photos of them.
2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2192.jpg 2016-05-07 51 9 GeorgDerReisende 2202.jpg After hash o'clock I left the place. At first I had a view from above, similar like at 2015-06-23 51 9, and then I looked for a way home. The first thing, what I saw, was this not-so-veloci-but-raptor, which tried to kill animals, plants and geohashers. On the way I tried to walk outside of sight, but the wind came from the wrong side and sometimes I felt something chemical in the air. But at least I could start to hitchhike at Abterode at 18:00 and with five cars I arrived home at 20:30.
