Location
Utrecht, Schepenbuurt
Participants
A friend of CO2. CO2 himself wasn't here.
Plans
CO2 saw the Hashpoint was nearby but didn't have time to go there himself. Therefore, he asked a friend to go.
Expedition
(This report was written by CO2's friend)
The Hashpoint was on the other side of town for me, so I went there by bike. In the beginning the sun was shining, but somewhere halfway it started to rain a little bit. After I arrived at the Schoenerstraat in the Schepenbuurt, the rain had stopped, so I could take some good pictures. I didn't have a GPS, so you have to believe I got there. The Schoenerstraat crossed the Tjalkstraat and there in an alleyway was the tree which was the Hashpoint. I left a note with the XKCD geohash picture and forgot to add the date, but still, it was enjoyable. I had some people staring at me like I was crazy because I was taking so much pictures of a perfectly ordinary tree in a backyard, but that was fun too.

Also there's a little youtube clip made around the hashpoint here.
