Location

This geohash lies within the Bürgerpark (citizen park) of Bremen.

Participants

Expedition

Gaboversta, Loipho

As the geohash is located in a publicly accessible place close to a train station which receives direct service from their home station of Oldenburg-Wechloy, Loipho and Gaboversta decided to venture on an expedition. Departing at Oldenburg-Wechloy at 14:53, the train made quick progress towards Bremen. Most of this was along the tracks which are recreated in a DLC to a train driving simulator. The corresponding steam page advertises the 'scenic plains of northern Germany', surely a euphemism.

The Bürgerpark is a rather nice place, with vast greenery and open paths. In some places, we found signs instructing us not to enter the grass, though through logic derived from the board game 'Carcassonne' we deduced that this did not apply to the patch home to the geohash.

The hash itself was right off a major path and reached mere moments before our desired time of arrival of 16:00. A proof of this was attempted, but foiled by one of our watches being set incorrectly. Despite looking around, no other geohashers could be identified, so we left for the return journey.
