Location

According to Google Maps, the location is on a minor road, in front of a tree and rose nursery.

Participants

Hijackal

Plans

Hijackal plans to make this his first geohash. He has been waiting for quite some time for a hash to be feasible by bike. He will be dragging along one friend who has spent the last months behind his desk and needs the exercise.

They hope to be there around 15:15.

Expedition

The hash was found a few minutes before 16:00, the spot was really easy to get to. (Apart from the fact that we decided to take some detours and navigated rather randomly on our trip here. And picked up a geocache on the way. And had some ice cream in Frechen, since our bike route had not been random enough and we still had too much time and too little distance.)

We waited til about 16:15, but noone else showed up. Not even random passersby.

Photos

Yay, my first geohash!

Hijackal earned the Land geohash achievement
