Location

In the middle of a forest near Sant Apollinare, a small town on the border between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany.

Participants

Kleon (talk) and a friend of mine who might create an account soon. This was the first geohash for both of us.

Expedition

At 9:30 in the morning we planned the trip and after meeting and messing with maps and various GPS devices we finally left Bologna towards the nearest hashpoint. An uneventful car ride brought us to Casola Valsenio (apparently there are too many places named after Sant'Apollinare) and we kept travelling along the river for a few kilometers. We left the car near a bar roughly a kilometer away from our hash. From then on we walked up the hills at fields' border or inside the forest until we got to the hash. Geohash reached at 15:00.

Tracklog

My friend's GPS kept a log and I hope he will post it here soon. But again, I'm not even sure if he will become an user.

Photos

Kleon (talk) took a ton of photos and hopes to upload them soon. I am not sure if it will count as proof but I planned very poorly and relied a little too much on our smartphones and they didn't work in the middle of a forest. oops!

Achievements

In theory this is the first hash in our grid. In practice I will gather proof before claiming any achievements
