Plans

No real plans. I just check my four nearby graticules each day to see if there are any doable hashpoints for me to visit. Today this haspointon appeared on my maps, so I went to visit it.

Expedition

Today I managed to go on my first geohashing expedition. This hashpoint is 11.95 kilometers from my home (as the crow flies). I took this expedition with my car. I took D31 road to Crnkovec and then took local road to Strmec Bukevski. Just before entering Strmec Bukevski I turned left on a dirt road that took me some 90 meters from this hashpoint. The hashpoint was located on middle of a meadow. There were some traces from some kind of vehicle on the meadow and they led almost directly towards hashpoint. I left my car on the middle of dirt road and proceed towards hashpoint on foot. Grass was quite wet from all the rain these days. I managed to get right to the ground zero and was quite happy I scored my first hashpoint. Took some pictures from the hashpoint and marked hashpoint with my jacket and took picture of hashpoint as well. I notice some locals some 200 meters ahead but didn't paid attention to them. Went back to car and started driving again. Then I noticed one of locals on his four-wheeler quad is driving after me. Since I had to turn my car on dirt road he catch-up with me, so I opened my car window. He was friendly but asked if I was seeking someone. I explained him the concept of geohashing game and he was satisfied with the explanation, so we exchanged greetings and split in peace and mutual understanding. As I drove away from my first hashpoint, it started to rain again, quite heavy. It was a nice geohashing expedition and I hope one of nearby graticules will have some doable hashpoints soon.
