Plans
Eupeodes finaly aims for a hash in his home graticule. Will attempt by public transport. There are also several Geocaches close to the hash.
The first one might qualify for Hash collision depending on the exact location of the hash.
Expedition
Eupeodes set of in the morning and took the bus to Tiel, from here he took several trains to reach Weert and from there another bus to a bit less than 2 km from the hash. He walked and on his way he first reached GC1WWXA. From there he walked on to the hashpoint. After some pictures he went for GC1WXFZ. Took some time but found it. After this he headed for the last hash within a kilometer from the hash. Due to the gps of Eupeodes not being very accurate GC31VFT was a bit of challenge but successful.
Now all Eupeodes had on paper was done, but he wanted more so he looked up the rest of the series 'Wegkruisen' and decided to go for it. The first hash he reached was GL8J1KBF, then he continued to GL8J1KFH and finally to GL8J1KHX. Here he noticed it was already getting quite late and reaching to other 2 hashes and the bonus hash would cost him a lot of time and his feet did not feel so well anymore either so he decided to stop here. So he walked back to the busstop and traveled back home the same way he came.
With this hash Eupeodes finally was successful in his home graticule, leading to level 1 of the minesweeper achievement, also he did this one only by public transport and foot, so public transport hash as well. Since GC1WXFZ was not in line of sight from the hashpoint it is only a honorabel mention for hash collision.
