Expedition

I left home at 11 o'clock and started to hitchhike at 12. With four cars I arrived at Northeim. I walked through the city and climbed onto the Wieter hill. There was a steep way to climb with 55 meters height on 200 meters distance. I only followed the road and first I saw an interesting look to the hill and then my GPS told me, there it is. I got a 3 meter distance and decided, at that stump, there is the hash. But I saw the footway behind and as I am an experienced geohasher in German woods, I wanted to get the zero meter mark. I walked back to the junction and took the footway uphill. And the GPS told me, that the hash was on the way, with the tree stump five meters away.

Afterhash I climbed onto the top of the hill and mounted the tower and had some views around.
