Location
The hash lay in the middle of a meadow at Willingen.
Participants
Plans
Travel to Willingen, walking to the hash.
Expedition
The plan looked easy. Walking to the hash.
But I don't have a running GPSr. So what to do. Ok, I use a planning tool. This tool can produce straigt lines. So I looked for things on the map, which could be a good bearing. And I found two single standing trees. Then with the measuring tool I counted the meters from points on the map. And I wanted to try the calculation from both sides to find out, if there is any mistake.
I arrived at the meadow and at first I made the try from the left side. While walking along the path I noticed that I made big steps and decided not to calculate with calculated steps but with meters as steps. I walked uphill the left path until 119 meters and switched to the right into the direction of the small tree and walked 64 steps. Looked around. Looked for a mark on the meadow and found one. Then I walked down the hill and took the right path. Followed it for 93 meters, switched to the left and walked into the direction of the tree at the junction, it was the first of some going to the right. Went ahead for 80 steps and looked around. And I stood on the first trail, but the first trail lead some meters more to the right. I marked both points with my daypack and my maskbag and walked around and between these points and thought, I made it.
