Plans

Going there by bike. First time in years I'm unable to use my smartphone, so we will stick with my fathers Garmin Oregon. Probably there will be no picture proof.

Notification: Yes I'm aware that my last reports are crappy. I want to update most of them, maybe this evening.

Expedition

There was an expedition! We started the expedition around 2 pm and went straight up the hill from home to Furtwangen, then we just drove on the old 'Bahndamm' there was a train once. Sadly in the shadow of the south hills it was very could. In the sun we drove with the t-shirt, but in the shadow the ground and puddles we're frozen and it was a cold mist all the time. We then went straight to the hashpoint after cruising through the city and we took proof pictures with my fathers smartphone, maybe one day I will upload them, maybe never. We then went on over Tannheim directly to Herzogenweiler, then into the forrest and after losing our signal (we used the oregon my father owns) and after a long break we finally arrived at the Friedrichshöhe. It was getting cold... and I was incredibly tired, I almost fell of my bike. I'm really out of shape! I wanted to die. I ate three or four power bars, but they barely gave me enough energy to think about going on. Now way. We called at home and said we would meet at the Fuchsfalle. We went there and waited in the cold. After half an hour (about an hour after our call) my mother finally arrived and took us home.

Tracklog

Not the tracklog (there may be one) but the track we made by bike recreated on google maps: [Click!] (The track isn't very accurate once you click, you have to chage to bycicle, and you have to pull the way to the hash over to Furtwangen and Hammereisenbach (sorry for all the work (and sorry for all the parethesis (what's the plural for parenthesis?))))

Elevation: around 759 metres total Distance: around 61 kilometres

Maybe I'm not that out of shape, but I hate to be beaten by my father.
