At first we drove to the right place, but on the wrong side of the concrete fence. Then we tried to approach it from the other side, but we couldn't find a good way. We were getting quite desperate as it was cold and sleeting. Finally we have found the right road and managed to reach the required longitude. After a few moments of running back and forth on some field in the darkness and regretting not having a simple compass we have found N-S axis and started going north. When we got about 25m away from the hash point we were stopped by a fence. A few seconds later GPS battery died. We went back to the car, warmed up a bit, took our Balls of Steel™ (for juggling), charged the battery and tried again. After finding a good place to jump over the concrete barrier we finally reached our destination. | At first we drove to the right place, but on the wrong side of the concrete fence.

At first we drove to the right place, but on the wrong side of the concrete fence. Then we tried to approach it from the other side, but we couldn't find a good way. We were getting quite desperate as it was cold and sleeting. Finally we have found the right road and managed to reach the required longitude. After a few moments of running back and forth on some field in the darkness and regretting not having a simple compass we have found N-S axis and started going north. When we got about 25m away from the hash point we were stopped by a fence. A few seconds later GPS battery died. We went back to the car, warmed up a bit, took our Balls of Steel™ (for juggling), charged the battery and tried again. After finding a good place to jump over the concrete barrier we finally reached our destination.
