Expedition

2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7291.jpg 2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7297.jpg From Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe I got a lift to the service station Remscheid and from there a lift to Troisdorf. There I took a bus to and across Siegen. Another lift led me to Hausermühle.
After 400 meters I entered the forest.
2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7302.jpg 2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7311.jpg Then I walked some meters and thought, I had found the hash, some meters away from the way on a steep slope. It seemed. I couldn't make a dance there because the edge was too steep. Then I tried to throw the Garmin, or to give it a feel of throwing, but that didn't help, the pointer didn't want to walk across the edge.
2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7308.jpg This was my feeling.
2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7315.jpg 2014-03-29 50 7 GeorgDerReisende 7314.jpg Then I tried a technique like against the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal. I told me, if I don't look to the Garmin, the Garmin would not look to the edge. And it happened. The pointer started to walk across the edge, at first only as near as eight meters, then, at a second moment, the pointer walked through the hash.
