Location

Reeshof, Tilburg, North Brabant.

Participants

Expedition

I went to Tilburg this morning and found the hash in a small forest just outside a new residential neighbourhood called Reeshof. I was planning to go by train, but due to track maintenance the trains were running a reduced schedule, so I decided to drive instead. There was one old man walking his two dogs, and some people riding horses around the forest. I had to squeeze myself through some thick bushes to get at the exact spot. I took a few pictures of the autumn foliage and then went on to visit museums in Tilburg, Breda and Etten-Leur.

Finally, a successful expedition in 51 5! Now there's only Texel to go for a complete Mineweeper around Utrecht!

Photos
