Location

In the woods near Bad Soden.

Participants

• Mampfred
• LadyBB

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.

  Parked the car near a ...

  ... sports ground - and what an important one (see next photo).

• 

  Seriously. If you even attempt to play here you WILL BE prosecuted. Or killed. Or both. ("This sports ground belongs to the city of Altenhain. Any playing without official approval is strongly forbidden.")

• 

  I'm thinking this sign will lead us to the hash. Any hash in fact.

• 

  Yep, still on the right track.

• 

  Bird-preservation area. Stay on the track. Luckily to our left, the hash was on the right of the track.

• 

  Coordinates ...

  ... reached.

• 

  View to the south east of the hash.

  View to the south west of the hash.

  Look, a stand right next to the hash.

  Looking from the stand down on LadyBB and the hash.

  Stupid Grin(tm).

  We also left a marker on the stand.
