Plans

Hitchhiking and walking.

Expedition

		I started in Kassel at 12:30, started to hitchhike at 13:00, after an half hour waiting I got the first lift. I noticed that I forgot the coordinates on my desk, but the driver helped me with his smartphone. With two other cars I arrived on the pass of the national road crossing the Eggegebirge. From there I walked along the forest way along the ridge of the mountains. Near the hash I saw the sky short behind the trees and I walked that way to have a look.
		And I found some cliffs going deep down. But good luck, the hash was not 45 meters east of the main way, but 45 meters west of it.
		I walked these 45 meters to the west.
		I made a big dance. The point was wandering and I wandered all the way behind. But at least I got a 0 meter shot. And I looked around:
to the north	to the east	to the south
to the west	and another time to the hash area	and to the geohasher.
		This is the forest way along the ridge. The way itself and the trees on the right side belong to the Landkreis Höxter, the trees on the left side belong to the Landkreis Paderborn. I walked this way along and two other ways to Kleinenberg and with three cars I arrived back at Kassel.
