Plans

We're rounded up already celebrating a birthday and suddenly noticed how close the hash is so we had to go.

Expedition

The (mid)day started with a nice BBQ and an even nicer climbing geocache and after getting back and doing some more clmkbing practise on EmmJays swing set we suddenly realized that the hash isn't very far. Amazingly, we were still all up to it so we changed clothes and got back in the car (leaving poor EmmJay behind with his grandmother - ah well).

We drove as close as we could get and parked the car still some way off. Using a number of forest paths we wiggled our way up one of the omnipresent hills in our area and found the hash only a couple of meters off the track. Birthday geohash achievement for Mampfred :)

We even found another geocache some 150 meters right next to out way back to the car. And for good measure we attacked a number of ingress portals on the way back home. There should be another achievement for maximising the number of GPS based games you can play on a single outing ;)
