Location
In the forrest between Son & Best, just above Eindhoven.
Participants
Trevil (talk), and also maybe his son.
Expedition
After picking up my son from school, we drove to Best and visited the Wings of Liberation museum, dedicated to the events of operation Market Garden. The location of the museum was close to one of the glider landing sites where the 101st Airborne Division landed about 70 years ago. After the museum visit, it was only a short hike to the hash itself. But the rain make it feel longer and it was also getting pretty cold. We did manage to find the spot and rushed back to the car park to drive home and get some warm clothes.
Photos
Achievements
Is it true that Trevil earned the Drag-along achievement?
