About

I live in Würzburg, Germany (near 49.8, 9.94) and work in Schweinfurt (near 50.05, 10.25). On my way to work I am able to visit hashpoints in a large area, depending on which route I use.

I might also visit hashpoints near Heidelberg in my origin graticule Mannheim, Germany (49, 8).

My GPS receivers are a Magellan Triton 500 (has a map, coordinates in DD.DDDDD° format, also shows distance/accuracy/..., but eats lots of batteries) and a Holux M-241 (no map, coordinates in DD°mm'ss.ss" format, logs the position faithfully every 5/10/... seconds, eats only small amount of batteries).

 Is it true that Danatar earned the Hashdog gratuitous ribbon for petting a dog at the hashpoint?
In principle, yes.
But he didn't pet the dog.
And the dog was not at the hashpoint.
Instead, the dog owner turned around 15m from them and fled. (2009-09-03 49 10).

More About

Earlier, when I didn't have a GPS, I relied on Google Maps, the Bavarian Land Survey Office's maps (with topographical information) and OpenStreetMap.org to find the hashpoints. This meant that whenever there was no special landmark (intersection, house...) at the hashpoint, I could only guess where the hashpoint was. If the hashpoint was e.g. in a forest 200 m from a track, I considered the coordinates reached after 200 large steps into the underbrush.

Although I always try to get to the exact spot, if the hashpoint is in a field with crops or in a very dirty/wet place without any obstacle between me and the hashpoint, I am satisfied at the edge of that area.

Scotty the Hashhog
 These are my hashscots.

To the left is Scott(y). He's a Hashhog (Erinaceus terramigrans) and visits as many hashpoints as possible with me.

On the right side you can see Polly (very creative name, I know) the Pirate PARRRot (or Parrot Pirate?). Like every true pirate Polly only visits waterhashes, but a rich hashpoint near the coast might be plundered as well.

Danatar's bike
 This is my heavy charger. He is heavy (no carbonbreds in his lineage), almost unstoppable (changing the brakes does not change anything) and carries me wherever I have the strength to take him. He is not born for far and fast journeys, more for the rocky wilderness. Unfortunately, I'm not born for the rocky wilderness, so his usual terrain are paved roads, downhill whenever possible. Nontheless, he has been my trusted steed for about 10-12 years.

On the right side is my car. It needs wider and better tracks, but it is faster, stronger and more comfortable than my bike and burns fuel instead of fat calories. I have to use it to get to work, so nowadays most of my expeditions consist of a detour by car instead of a trip by bike. With 5 melted polar caps per 100 km, I nontheless try to minimize those detours.
