Location

Next to a soccer field in Heusenstamm.

Participants

Plans

Might go there after work.

Expedition

Mampfred went there using public transport and met up with QuarterCacher near the hash. The soccer field turned out to be a former soccer field and seemed to be unused and filled with large heaps of earth and lots of junk.

That turned out to be a good thing though as the hash was just behind the fence of the field and since it was unused it seemed to be frequented by all sorts of people using it as a shortcut. We headed in and found the hash in minutes. Placed a hash marker (facing the street), took some photos and went back to the car.

(We then actually had a go at a geocache at a near supermarket but failed to find the nano - as we do most of the time ;).
