Reaching the hash was pretty easy: popped the coordinates into my GPS and followed its directions. The hash was located near some thorny bushes by the side of a road, and for some reason the GPS reception was pretty poor. It took a bit of dancing to get a low enough reading to qualify. I took some pictures with Lloyd and Kat's mascots, and then continued our trip.

Location

Hammelev, Denmark.

Participants

FelixTheCat (talk)

Kat The Awesome (duly represented by Harriet The Sheep and Toettoet The Mouse)

Plans

Kat and I were on a road trip in Denmark when this hash came up almost right on the road we were planning to take that day. I explained to Kat that I wanted to visit a random point on this rural road nearby, trying to explain the idea behind Geohashing, and she replied: "That sounds nerdy! But funny too :-)".

Expedition

Reaching the hash was pretty easy: popped the coordinates into my GPS and followed its directions. The hash was located near some thorny bushes by the side of a road, and for some reason the GPS reception was pretty poor. It took a bit of dancing to get a low enough reading to qualify. I took some pictures with Lloyd and Kat's mascots, and then continued on our trip.
