Plans

I left home in the evening and cycled to the Haut-Koenigsbourg. The route was fairly short but quite steep and rainy. I arrived one hour later at the coordinates, which were located near some kind of precast concrete utility building.

After recording proof, I completed the remaining kilometer up to castle. There, I wrote and posted a hashcard (which I had bought in advance) to Kripakko while waiting for the clouds to go away. After 20 minutes, I got a nice view on the plain below. Then I went home, which was faster and much easier that the way there.
