Expedition

In the evening I wanted to visit this Geohash. I drove to a nearby forest parking lot and walked towards coordinates. At the corner of the forest i discovered a small house with a memorial stone. Explanation to the stone: The Mountain Infantry Battalion 91, founded in 1847, was part of the largest military mobilization in Switzerland since the end of the Second World War. The "91ers" were on duty for six weeks without interruption, the last three of them in the assistance service, where they supported the border guards at various locations along the border. (More you can read here) Explanation to the house: see picture below written in german.

then i went on to my actual goal. I had to take a few steps into the field and saw a possibility without damaging the plants. Otherwise I would have had to cancel the action. so it was success!

This mission was successful unlike last time. Maybe also because i saw today windmills instead of the nuclear power plant last time...  :-)
