Zürich, Switzerland is currently in a hashclash with München, Germany. The clash will be won by the graticule to report more successful expeditions during January 2013.
You are free to side with one of the graticules and motivate it by cheering it on - or to demotivate the other one. Progress can be tracked here.
The Zürich graticule is located at latitude 47, longitude 8. Zurich, the biggest city in Switzerland, lies more or less in the center of it. The graticule further contains the cities of Winterthur, Lucerne and Schaffhausen.
Around two third of its area are within Switzerland whereas the northern part belongs to Germany. Other geographical features are the origin of the Danube river near Donaueschingen, the river Rhine that cuts the area from east to west, and the beginning of the Alpine mountain range in the very south east of the graticule.
Contents
