Location

In a forest near the village of Puntarikoski in Kontiolahti.

Participants

Kripakko
Kripakko's father

Plans

We had some business unrelated to geohashing nearby today, and because we had plenty of time to spare, I persuaded him to visit the geohash.

Expedition

We parked my father's car about 250 metres to the north from the hashpoint and walked there. There are power lines and an opening in the forest running by the point, and we could walk along it easily. There was still some snow in the ground and standing water from melted snow in a depression, but we were able to find a path without getting our feet wet. I took some pictures at the hashpoint, and my father took a picture of me. After some seven minutes, we walked back to the car and carried on with our business.

Photos

Hashpoint reached!
View from the hashpoint.
As my dad said, this is some typical East Finnish forest.
Me at the hashpoint.
Yes, there is still some snow on the ground.

Achievements

Kripakko earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (62, 29) geohash on 2019-05-11.

Kripakko earned the Drag-along achievement

by dragging his father to the (62, 29) geohash on 2019-05-11.
