Location

A field near the small town of Auw, AG

Participants

Plans

Train leaving Zürich HB at 16:08 towards Lenzburg. Should be there just before dusk.

Expedition

Quantity, not quality ;). Seriously, there is absolutely no reason to leave earlier from work (how to explain to the boss?), travel to this small town (boooring), just to get a hash. Except, you are in a race for the most active graticule of the month, of course.

So i went.

I took a train to the nearest station, from there a bus to the closest bus stop to the hash. The town was the pure opposite of spectacular, quite sleepy, except for a very busy main road crossing the village.

There was a very nice view from the hash towards the mountains. I took some pictures, a screenshot from my iPhone, and left back home. End of the story. Zürich +1. Your turn, München! ;)

Tracklog

n/a

Photos

View from the train towards Sins.
The bus to Auw took a narrow road through a forest.
The hash lies around 10 meters in this field. Mount Rigi in the background.
Screenshot. Coordinates reached.
