Location

In the woods near Bad Soden.

Participants

Plans

Quick outing on a friday afternoon, will leave soon(tm).

Expedition

Exactly as planned, drove most of the way but decided to have a walk for the last kilometer or so. Parked near a sports ground and found the hash just outside the woods in front of a (very) little field. There was a stand right next to it, too bad it wasn't on top of it or we could have qualified for a Stacking achievement. Took some photos and headed back home.
