Expedition

For a long time I was not sure, whether I will ignore this point or not. But at the end the short distance won and I decided to visit it after work. "Wetter-Online" predicted "two raindrops". That may mean everything from "cloudy but dry" till "be warned, you will be soaked", today it meant "two raindrops". That was acceptable.

It was a short way to Ammerbach by bike, where I parked it at the bottom of the hill the point lay on. From here I went the last 500 meters on foot. Good decision. Others may have tried to climb the hill by bike, but I’m not that crazy. So the last 500 meters were a relaxed walk and only the last 10 became haspoint typical.

I left the path and entered a thicket were a machete would have been helpful (once again). A cloudy sky above, trees and brushwood all around, so the GPS signal was fading of course. Whenever a moved 1 meter in reality the GPS device moved 5. And this in an area where it took 10 seconds to move this 1 meter. So a distance of 6 meters must be close enough for today’s finished-photo. (Btw. I forgot to switch on the coordinates field, but believe me, the flag is at the point)

Parking area   The point is on the left side of the path. Good luck.   Maybe it's here...   ... or 6 meters away, who knows?   Another geohasher I met on my way back.   A view down the hill.   And another one.
