Location

A mere 2.8km as the bird flies (and 5km as the car drives...) next to federal road B3. Can't not go. :)

Participants

Rincewind and Yakamoz

Plans

Expedition

When Yakamoz came home, we left for the expedition. A couple minutes of driving later, we found that we were lucky- Rincewind had misjudged the coordinates to be to the right side of the road, which would have been military area and fenced off.

It was to the left, though and we just had to park the car on the side of the road bank and walk less than a hundred meters. After fighting through a bit of thorns, we could walk straight to the coordinates in the woods. The GPS gadget easily counted down the distance and we didn't even have to do a hash dance. Unfortunately, Rincewind forgot the camera (spell: mobile phone) in the car and so we don't have a hashsite photo- just imagine a fairly standard Pine forest. All in all, a very easy hash and door to door less than thirty minutes, I guess. :)

"Land" and "Easy" would apply, if I weren't too lazy. :)
