After a nice weekend in the Thuringian forest and the Frankenwald Manu and Reinhard wanted to visit Reinhard's family in Erfurt as well. Fortunately the Sunday geo hash almost lay on their way, so they drove a small detour to Rockhausen where they parked their cars not far from the point and thought of an easy geo hash expedition. But don't count your chickens before they hatch! The field which was between the hashers and the hash was not yet harvested, so they chose the long way around instead of following the air line. It was a very hot day, even in the evening. After about one kilometre they reached the right side of the field and were confronted with high nettles through which they painfully had to fight their way next. Finally Manu and Reinhard reached the geo hash - it was as unspectacular as it could be, but nevertheless another successfull expedition in 50 11 - hooray!
