Expedition

I took the train to Unterlüß, and walked to the Geohash from there. It was quite hot at the beginning, but fortunately I entered the forest soon and it was less sunny there. However there were countless (I think) ticks that tried to drink my blood, falling from the trees onto my skin.

In the forest, I saw several box stands, and one was indeed manned. I was not shot though, presumely because the hunter could tell that I am human. We greeted each other. I also saw his prey, deer, and a large stag, but they ran away when they saw me.

I found the coordinates without any problems. They weren't on the path, but also not far from it, and the forest was not dense here. After recording proof, I continued the hike, going to the train station in Suderburg.

On the way, I passed a power line. It got quite dark, and for fear of running into stags, I clapped loudly every once in a while. Finally, I reached the civilization again, first Graulingen and then Suderburg. From there, I took the train back to Hannover.
