The hash lay in the forest Habichtswald west of Kassel.

I wanted to travel by bus to the Habichtswald, then walking to the hash.


		I left home at one o'clock. Took the tram 3 until its terminus Druseltal and then the bus 22 to the stop Loipenhaus. There I started to walk. Across a meadow beneath I saw some last shades of fog, blowing away by the wind.
		This was the today's quality of the forest paths. Snow and ice. Always experienced with muddy forest ways, this was some total else. Another type of walking. Don't looking to the way and slip... Looking at the way and seeing the different sorts of white and understanding the different sorts of danger. Switch from the middle of the path to its side and back.
		But I made it. Now 600 meters to hash, but one mile of walking.
		Another forest way, now tarred, going downhill. Some icy portions. Now laying in the sun, I thought for my way back, there might be ice, after the sun went away.
		Then this way. What will it look like in spring or in summer? Today it was a less muddy way, because the ground and the pavement were frozen. Good to walk. Bad in summer. Or after the melt.
		Now 60 meters to go. Across a small meadow, would be very wet in summer, today there was only frozen grass. And I made it.
		Looking to the south, and to the west.
		The north and the east.
		The geohasher of this place. The hash lay one meter behind the stump in front.
		While walking to the hash, this way looked less dangerous. But it was the same.
		On the way back I had a good overview to the landscape.
		At least the fog came back.
