Location

In a field, in the middle of a 300m shooting range in Niederdorf.

Participants

Plans

I will take the train to Liestal and cycle the remaining 10 km to the geohash. I should be there around 16:00.

Expedition

Cycling in Switzerland was a nice improvement from my previous expeditions. There is a nice cycle route from Liestal to Niederdorf with consistent and ubiquitous signage. When the bicycle route gets interrupted because of roadworks, you are redirected to an asphalt ramp, a temporary bridge and 200 metres of plastic road plates. Most permanent bicycle infrastructures I've seen in France and Germany didn't get half as much attention.

After 11 km, I arrived in Niederdorf. There I took a steep forest path that led me to a field between an outdoor shooting range and its targets. Nobody was using the using the shooting range so I waited here a few minutes until 16:00. The coordinates were a few metres below the path, near a row of trees along a small creek.

After recording proof, I cycled back to Liestal and took the train home.
