As planned I drove to Waldkappel after work and parked my car at the local swimming area (in summer, it's hard to find a free parking lot, in fall I was the only one around here) and went for a nice walk through the forest. Wanted to do a geocache first and arrived at the coordinates some 15 minutes / 1,5 kilometer later, bit there were some other people enjoying the nice weather right on the bank, where the geocache should've been hidden, so I left this one out and continued my way to todays geohash...

As for geohashing, december has been a bad month for me and I was afraid of not even finding at least '''one''' hash this month! Sure, some hashes were actually in my homezone, but all of them were right on the middle of fields and thus not reachable... So I got quite excited to find out about todays coordinates, the way I like them: in the middle of a forest!
  
The sun was shining and filled the forest with another thousand of interesting colours, so I enjoyed my walk to the hash. Some 100 meters from the hash I found this nice place with a great view over the village Waldkappel and then a small path almost lead me directly to the hash... Well, almost... The path was surrounded by blackberries - stings and thorns everywhere, and still some 40 meters to go from here. I decided to further walk the path and after some 60 meters I found a 'better' path, sort of leading me back to the geohash... Still extremely overgrown, but less thorns, which was a good alternative.

As planned I drove to Waldkappel and parked my car at a dead end road and walked the way through the forest to get near the hash. The weather was excellent, quite dense and foggy, creating an atmosphere I really like! On the last 100 meters I had to go straight into the woods - and at the hash location I had to do a serious hash-dance, since the coords were jumping around like hell... But, with patience, I managed to locate the hash quite accurately and took some pics for proof! Now I am a lucky man, having at least one hash in this month - maybe I'll have some luck on the last two days of the year as well - let's see...
 
 
So, after a little struggle on the final 25 meters I approached the hash - some pines and lots of bushes (never was in the jungle, but I guess this location got quite similar!)... Took some pics for evidence and then walked an alternative route back to my car, drove home and that's it!

Expedition

As for geohashing, december has been a bad month for me and I was afraid of not even finding at least one hash this month! Sure, some hashes were actually in my homezone, but all of them were right on the middle of fields and thus not reachable... So I got quite excited to find out about todays coordinates, the way I like them: in the middle of a forest!

As planned I drove to Waldkappel and parked my car at a dead end road and walked the way through the forest to get near the hash. The weather was excellent, quite dense and foggy, creating an atmosphere I really like! On the last 100 meters I had to go straight into the woods - and at the hash location I had to do a serious hash-dance, since the coords were jumping around like hell... But, with patience, I managed to locate the hash quite accurately and took some pics for proof! Now I am a lucky man, having at least one hash in this month - maybe I'll have some luck on the last two days of the year as well - let's see...
